Arona sits on the southern coast of Tenerife in the Canary Islands and acts as a gateway for divers visiting the island. While the town itself is primarily a base for lodging and services, the nearby coastal areas offer accessible saltwater diving opportunities with a range of dive centers that run boat and shore dives to Tenerife’s reefs and bays. For freshwater options, the area is not a inland diving spot; divers typically access training facilities via local centers and occasional quarry-style sites on the island. Overall, Arona serves as a practical hub for divers exploring Tenerife’s underwater terrain, with easy access to a variety of dive sites within short boat trips.
