Madeira Diving Center is a family-run dive school in Caniço de Baixo, offering diving experiences and training on the island of Madeira. Established in 1980 as Madeira’s first diving center, it draws on more than 45 years of local experience and is now run by Felix and Carlota. The center is SSI-certified and provides a range of courses for divers seeking training and further development. Rental equipment is supplied by Mares.

The team organizes dives at Madeira’s underwater sites, focusing on small groups, personal guidance and relaxed experiences rather than mass outings. It also helps guests plan individual holidays and offers accommodation in holiday apartments operated by the dive center, combining diving and lodging in one place. The center highlights its personalized advice and attentive service as central to its approach. Its quality has been recognized multiple times with a TAUCHEN magazine award for “Best Dive Center in the Atlantic.” With its long-standing island knowledge, training options, equipment rental and accommodation, Madeira Diving Center welcomes visitors who want to discover the region’s underwater world.
