ISSUE 4 - JANUARY 2007
David and Yvonne
have moved to a new Dive Centre/Dive Shop and have changed the name
to
Tenerife Dive. The name is easier to remember and is the same as our
web address. www.tenerifedive.com
We
have a large terrace where the equipment is washed and hung up to dry
or where you can sit with a coffee and watch the world go by or admire
our stunning views of Mount Teide.
We
are now located outside the complex of Parque Don Jose in Costa Del
Silencio. See the map and driving directions at the bottom of the page.
Inside we have a
large classroom which will comfortably seat 8 persons, ideal for our
PADI Instructor Courses.
Our
equipment room has plenty of space for storing your equipment and our
hire equipment.
The new shop area has everything from small clips to a
new dive computer and of course our ever popular polo shirts and t-shirts.
Our duty free shopping can usually compete with the internet, we have
local suppliers for Scubapro, Cressi and Apex. If you order equipment
before you arrive we can have it ready for you to use on your first
dive.
We have
a new speciality course to add to the list - PADI Digital Underwater
Photography Speciality course. The course includes 2 dives and your
own copy of the
DUP
manual. Don't have your own underwater camera, we have a camera in the
dive centre you can use and take your photographs home on a cd.
Are you
looking for a new career or want a hobby that will earn money, visit
our Intern page which
will certify you to Instructor level. If you are already a certified
diver we are happy to discuss a package to suit your needs, just email
for information.
We also
have a dedicated website which provides lots of information on becoming
a PADI Professional www.idc-canaryislands.com.
How
to get to the new Dive Centre.
Directions from
the TF-1, leave at exit 26.
If you have come
from Las Americas, at the end of the slip road is a roundabout, go straight
over; if you have come from the Golf Del Sur take the second part of
the slip road which leads under the TF-1, get into the left lane go
round the roundabout and up past the Renault garage, turn right at the
large roundabout.
From both directions head down the hill through Guaza passing the BP
petrol station on the left, at the next roundabout turn left and along
this road which is about 3km, passing the banana plantations. At the
end turn right and follow the road until you are passing the Shell petrol
station on the left, at the next junction turn left and follow along
and turn right at the Totem restaurant. Follow the road which bends
to the left and after this take the next left, this is our street, we
are just further along on the right.
