PADI Dive Center
Haliotis Madeira is a PADI Dive Center located at Hotel Dom Pedro Baía in Machico, 5 minutes away from the airport.
Madeira is known as the "Pearl of the Atlantic" due to its amazing climate that allows scuba diving all year around! The archipelago of Madeira consists of Madeira island; Porto Santo island (Golden Island) 90 km NE of Funchal; Desertas Islands (where the only colony of monk seals in Portuguese territory lives. During some dives you may be lucky enough to encounter them ) and the Selvagens Islands.
The water temperature varies between 17ºC and 22ºC and the visibility between 10 and 25 meters.
It is recommended a 5mm suit in the high season, from June to October, and a 7mm suit in the low season, from November to May.
