You will amortize it with only one outing per month, being able to obtain a great profitability as soon as you apply it to purchases, outings, trips, etc.
At Buceo Donosti, we take the quality of our gases very seriously, adding additional filtering systems to the compressors to triple the filtration and achieve a “clean” air compatible with oxygen (far superior to the “breathable”), reliable and of high quality.
Our air complies with the most demanding air quality standards “EN 12021” and DIN 3188/3.6.
In our charging station, in addition to the best quality air, you can find nitrox, trimix, oxygen, as long as you are in possession of a certification to be able to use these gases.
In short: “We make sure you get what you need.”
At Buceo Donosti we offer repair and maintenance services.
In our workshop we have what is necessary to perform all types of repairs, maintenance kits for regulators and jackets. We have the proper tools to perform the work in a professional manner and not damage the equipment, machinery for cleaning and descaling of regulators, etc..
We are authorized technical service of the best brands in the market, which implies rigorous quality controls for all the work performed.
Don’t forget to have your annual check-up!
We have two boats fully equipped with depth sounder, ploter, gps, bathing platform, ladder and, of course, spare parts kit, first aid kit and oxygen equipment.
Departures are made from the port of Pasai – Donibane at the jetty a few meters from the dive center.
Our trips have a skipper who stays on board to provide surface support and a Divemaster or Instructor, who is in charge of organizing the trip and guiding the dive for those who need it or are just starting to dive.
Departures are made throughout the year in more than thirty different points covering a wide area. East to Biosnar or west to Igueldo.
Throughout this stretch of coastline the orography of the bottom presents a multitude of different dives, all of them of equal interest, but at the same time different from each other. From shallows and wrecks, to archaeological remains such as anchors or cannons.
You must present your diving certificate and insurance and be at the dive center half an hour before departure so that the dive is not delayed.
During the summer season, dives are conducted every day, and in winter on weekends and holidays.
Night classes are held every Friday for those whose certificate allows them to do so.
Departures are conditioned by sea conditions.
To know the sea state, you can do it by visiting the sea state section on our website, or by subscribing to our weekly newsletter from the form on the home page where all kinds of information is given: sea, weather, departures, courses, trips, etc.
To sign up for the outings, you can call us by phone and reserve your place.
We will confirm departures the day before to ensure that they are not cancelled due to sea conditions.
