Centro de Buceo Mojacar about the centre
Located in the Almería Levant, Centro de Buceo Mojacar has been a fixture of the local diving community for over 27 years. The centre's strategic position allows for easy access to a variety of distinct diving environments, ranging from the protected waters of the Cabo de Gata and Carboneras Natural Park to the coasts of Mojácar and Villaricos.
Whether you are looking to start your training or are a technical diver seeking challenging environments, the centre covers the northern Almería region extensively. Their operations are built around fast boats that can reach various points across the coastline, ensuring access to both popular sites and more remote, less crowded locations within the Natural Park.

The centre is a PADI reference centre, meaning they are equipped to handle everything from introductory dives for families to advanced instructor training. Their long history in the region means the staff are intimately familiar with the local topography and seasonal shifts in the marine environment.

The boats
The centre operates a fleet of lanchas rápidas (fast boats) to transport divers to the various dive sites across the Almería coast. These vessels allow for efficient transit to the more remote areas of the Cabo de Gata Natural Park that are inaccessible by land.
These boats provide coverage for all the major dive points in the northern Almería area, including the Costa de Mojácar and Villaricos. For technical divers, the boats are capable of supporting more complex profiles, with Trimix available for those undertaking technical training.
