"Hi guys, hope all is well with you. I've got a
feeling it won't be too long before we're back visiting again. (LOL
I know I said I never go to the same place twice, but I like it there).
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy and prosperous new Year. Cheers,
Dave, Alison and family "
Dave Clarke (8 Dec '08)
"A great ,friendly, competent outfit that I am happy
to recommend. Rob is so laid back he could be suffering raptures of
the deep on the surface, but the advice given and arrangements made
were spot on. I had 4 very enjoyable dives with Tiago. We saw many turtles
and rays, an angel shark and an interesting blow hole - all this from
shore dives just 15 minutes drive from the dive centre. I was impressed
with the thoroughness of his pre dive briefings and his knowledge of
the dive sites. The kit supplied was well maintained and in very good
condition. I will be back ! The Welsh Beggar "
Mike Rees (10 Dec '08)
"A million thanks to Rob & Rich for having the patience,
the nerves, the willpower & the CAPACITY to withstand all sorts of people
like us:)) You guys have made our holiday in Tenerife a lot more exciting,interesting
..just mindblowingly fun. And for that we are in your debt. If you ever
come by in my country and are in need of anything, you know my email
:) Cheers guys! Hope to meet again. Double-O Seven signing off !"
Dr. Mark & Anna, Romania (4 Sept '08)
"Cheers guys for a fantastic diving experience,

Barbie & Ken (rachel&craig), UK (30 Aug '08)
"Thanks for giving us all such good instruction
and taking us on some great dives. It is good to know your children
are in safe hands. We will definitely be back. "
Mark, Rob & Mike, UK (21 Aug '08)
"Many thanks to Rich for having the patience to
get me through my open water qualification! Big thanks to Rob also for
`fine tuning` my swimming style and halving my O2 consumption!
Top dive centre, top guys. Hope to see you again soon."
Stuart Lafferty, UK (11 Aug '08)
"My fear of water now conquered thanks to the fab
guys at Tenerife Sun Diving Centre!!! Cheers to Tiago, for having the
patience to take me through my skills, and to Taigo & Donald for braving
the open water with me so I could dive with the turtles... So in the
words of the Carlsberg ad "if Carlsberg made Instructors & Dive Masters
they´d probably best the best in the world" In my view they are any
way!! Oh, and thanks to the rest of the team Rob, Matt & Ritchie for
washing my kit. Be back in Jan to do my open water guys, see you then...
Kelly xx"
Kelly, UK (8 Aug '08)
"Hi all. Just a quick note now I've returned to
a wet UK to say thanks to you all for sorting me out on a dive whilst
on holiday last week. Special thanks to Richie - the Turtles were awesome
and I spent the rest of the day wit ha stupid grin on my face!!!"
Phil Woollen, UK (5 Aug '08)
"I just wanted to say thanks to Rob, Richie, Donald
and everyone at Tenerife Sun for 4 great days of diving. I did my Advanced
Open Water Course while I was there and I found the tuition and the
friendliness of the staff was first class. I wish I could have stayed
for longer but I'm sure I'll see you next year! "
Claire Parrett, UK (4 Aug '08)
"I just wanted to drop you a line now that we have
arrived back home after our holiday in Tenerife. My three girls (wife
Colette plus two daughters, Lara and Gemma) and I dived with you last
week and were looked after by Donald. Having only learned to dive a
year ago and not having dived since, Colette, Lara and Gemma were a
bit nervous about getting back in the water. But they needn't have worried
because the care and attention given to them by Donald and the time
he took to make them feel comfortable about diving again put them at
their ease and they really enjoyed their dives. Gemma in particular
was not sure about diving again after an unenjoyable final dive in Egypt
last year. Thanks to Donald her confidence is now high and she had a
grin like a Cheshire cat after the dive at El Puertito and playing with
the turtles.
For my part I enjoyed his company and we seemed to have the same warped
sense of humour! But next time we visit, can we please use the Ferrari,
which I understand was in the garage being fixed!!???
Best wishes and thanks from us all. "
Tony Bates
"An amazing time was had by both of us, the lads
gave Jeff an amazing adventure - the time of his life. The help, the
advice, the laughs, the experence was outstanding - you just could not
buy what the lads gave us, plus their is always a freindly hand to hold
ha ha."
Jeff & Jackie Hooton, Ireland
"I had 3 amazing dives with this great bunch of
people. It was my first time diving and they were all wonderful with
helping me. I am going to come back and see you all, I promise!! :)
The experience was amazing! I want to continue the training further!
Thanks!!"
Amy, UK
"I booked a couple of dives and they ended up running
an extra 'one on one' trip with me as the other divers booked on the
day OW or AOW qualified and they didn't want to limit my dive. First
dive had lots of swim throughs, big trumpet fish, entry into blowhole
etc., Was a good dive, total dive time about 45 mins. Second dive, I
got asked if I liked turtles, answer was yes of course. I got told there
are no promises but 80% chance at the site we were going to. We saw
3 turtles, with 3 sightings of one, 2 of another and one of the third,
smallest turtle. They were so close that you had to push them away (gently
of course) on the bottom of their shell to stop them trying to eat your
head, the two bigger turtles were huge and up close. We also saw a couple
of gorgeous nudibranchs, trumpet fish, couple of cuttlefish one of which
was doing an incredible colour changing display and loads of other things.
All in all the best reef dive that I've done in years. Overall opinion
of the dive centre is fantastic, there was only me and the dive guide
in the car, but we still had full O2 and first aid kits,
he took the time to make sure I knew where they were and where the car
key was incase of problems. I asked for 15L cylinders as I am a gas
pig on OC, they provided them with no problems. I am a very, very happy
customer."
Danny, UK
"After many 'try dives' in different locations,
I did my PADI OW course. My first dive after the course, dive six, was
in Tenerife with Donald & Matt. I was so impressed I left my wife on
the beach and did three more dives with Donald, Rob & Matt. These guys
are the epitome of professionalism, and friendly too. Diving isn't a
job to these guys - it's a passion. They are living the dream. Your
dive with them will reflect this contagious enthusiasm. I had a great
time, great dive sites and lots to see. The dive experience was perfect
for my needs - guidance and encouragement when I needed it without being
patronising. This is no ordinary dive centre, you get to dive with a
personal touch."
Tim, Cambs, UK
"It was my first time to organise a dive holiday
for a group of 8 to any destination so I was under a little bit of pressure
to get it right on this trip!! We met Rob, Steve, Donald and Sandra
on the first day and they put together the most amazing dive trip we
could ever dream of. They not only trained most of the lads but at the
same time organised dives to the most out-of-this-world dive sites you
can imagine!! It turned out to be a top quality center with a very professional
crew!! We have since returned to the center and again they pulled out
all the stops. We have another trip organised for the end of the year,
so I can't say enough about them. So thanks lads, we`ll see ye soon!
The Irish crew... "
Paul O Hare(Paddy Divers), Ireland
"As first time divers we would recommend these guys
any day. Great teachers, all around people and they put together a phenomenal
day in the water for us. Seeing sea turtles up close was a great experience.
Thanx for the beers fellas!! Great New Years eve day!"
Joe & Cait (The Canucks), Canary Islands
"Took my refresher course with Donald and it was
if i had known him all my life. He put me straight at ease. I had a
couple of dives at El Portito and actually swam with a turtle - was
amazing! The whole crew are great and I will deffo be returning as soon
as I can. Thanks guys !
Alan Jamieson , UK
"Fantastic dive! Fantastic Center!

Black Roy & White Wife, UK
"I would just like to say I have been on many dives
in Tenerife with Rob, without doubt one of the best divemasters I know.
Well done on opening the dive centre and keep up the good work. Look
forward to diving with you again soon."
Simon Collyer PADI MSDT, UK
"Spent Christmas and New Year with Rob, Donald and
Steve. Had a fantastic time and felt totally safe and at ease. Returned
in February for a couple of dives, can't wait to return. Thank you very
much."
Mick Inger, UK
"Just got back from a fabulous week of diving in
the waters around Tenerife. The Tenerife Sun crew made my wife and I
feel welcome and we learned so much in a short time! Thanks to Donald,
Rob and Steve."
Bob and Fiona Drew, Cumbria, UK
"I was in Tenerife in early January and had a great
time under the guidance of Rob. Felt confident and safe the whole time.
Oh, and the views were just stunning!"
