Buceo Las negras

Buceo Las Negras is situated in the heart of the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, a protected marine area in Almería. The centre is based in the former fishing village of Las Negras, which serves as a quiet Mediterranean base for divers looking to explore the local seabed.

Operating since 2006, the centre provides daily diving opportunities whenever local conditions allow. Because the village is nestled within a natural park, the diving environment is defined by the specific conservation status of the coastline.

As a PADI affiliated centre, Buceo Las Negras provides instruction for all levels of experience. The team manages everything from introductory dives to professional training, ensuring a structured approach to learning and exploration.

The centre also operates as an active tourism provider, meaning they are well-versed in the logistics of the local area. They manage accommodation for their guests, making it possible to coordinate your entire stay around the dive schedule.

The course catalogue covers the full spectrum of PADI certifications. Beginners can start with the Discover Scuba Diver programme or work through the Open Water Diver and Scuba Diver courses.

For those looking to advance their skills, the centre offers the Advanced Open Water Diver course and a variety of PADI specialties. Professional divers can also train here through the Divemaster programme.

The centre provides various options for divers who prefer not to transport their own heavy kit. You can hire complete sets or select specific items such as wetsuits, fins, and masks.

For those looking to extend their time underwater or explore at night, torches are available for hire. The centre is officially registered with the Andalusian Registry of Active Tourism, ensuring they meet the required standards for operating within the natural park.

Diving in the Las Negras area is subject to the natural conditions of the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park. Daily dives are organised based on the prevailing weather and sea states to ensure safety.

Local swell and currents will dictate the type of dive, whether you are exploring the reef flats or moving along the coastline. The centre monitors these conditions closely before every departure.
