Brisub

BRISUB is situated in the coastal town of Las Galletas, in the southern part of Tenerife. The centre serves as a base for exploring the unique underwater topography of the Canary Islands, where volcanic formations meet deep Atlantic waters.

Daily departures are organised from the Puerto Marina del Sur, providing direct access to the most significant dive sites in the region. Whether you are looking to complete your first certification or move into technical diving, the centre is positioned to cover the diverse range of environments found around the southern coast.

The centre is operated by a team of PADI-certified instructors, many of whom have more than 20 years of experience in the field. This long-standing local knowledge is a core part of their service, helping to tailor dives to the specific skill levels of each diver.

As a family-run business, BRISUB maintains a professional yet personal approach to diving. They are committed to sustainable practices and ocean education, ensuring that the local marine environment is respected during every excursion. The team is well-versed in the local conditions, which is essential for safe navigation through the area's volcanic structures.

BRISUB offers a comprehensive curriculum of PADI courses, catering to every stage of a diver's development. Beginners can start with the Open Water Diver course, while those looking to progress can pursue Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver, and Divemaster certifications.

The centre also provides specialised training to enhance your skills, including PADI Deep Diver, Night Diver, and Wreck Diver courses. For those moving into the technical realm, they offer Intro To Tech, Deco Procedures, and Advanced Nitrox, alongside specialized training like the Tec Gas Blender and Scooter (DPV) courses.

Daily guided dives are conducted via boat, departing from the Puerto Marina del Sur. These trips allow you to reach the various wreck and cave sites that define the southern Tenerife diving scene.

The centre provides a full range of professional equipment for hire, covering all the essentials from regulators to exposure suits. This is ideal for divers travelling without their own kit who require reliable, high-quality gear.

For those looking to extend their bottom time or manage nitrogen loading, Nitrox is available on-site. The centre also manages personal dive insurance through Dan Europe, providing an extra layer of security for visiting divers.

The marine life around southern Tenerife is diverse, driven by the volcanic terrain. You will often find large schools of fish and moray eels sheltering within the structures of the wrecks or the crevices of the volcanic walls. Sea turtles are a regular presence, particularly around the sites of Palm Mar and El Bufadero.

Pelagic species and larger residents also frequent these waters, including manta rays, groupers, rays, and various species of octopus. You may also encounter dolphins during your excursions.

For those interested in macro life, the area offers plenty to see. Look closely among the reef structures for nudibranchs, small shrimps, and various tropical fish. The volcanic floor and wrecks provide plenty of hiding spots for these smaller organisms.

The diving conditions in southern Tenerife are influenced by the protection provided by the Alizé winds, which typically results in low current levels. This makes the area highly accessible for a wide range of divers.

The sea remains relatively stable, allowing for consistent daily boat departures. Water temperatures remain pleasant throughout the year, making the region a reliable destination for year-round diving.
