Due to the low temperature of the water and how "unattractive" its climate is compared to the Mediterranean, Galicia is one of the most underestimated places by divers. And although it is true that when we decide to dive in La Coruña we face cold waters and low visibility, these conditions (apart from making divers tanned) are what have fostered the great biodiversity that characterizes the underwater habitat of this city, turning the diving in a super enriching and interactive activity. Always respecting of course marine life.
One of the great advantages that La Coruña has is the stability of the temperature of its waters, which by maintaining the same average temperature throughout the year, makes it ideal for traveling at any time, with its advantages in each time of year, sure. Being able to choose between the clear waters and great visibility of the winter months, or the possibility of complementing your dives with the lively city that is enjoyed in summer.
Access to La Coruña is mainly by land, since most national and international flights land in Santiago de Compostela. Luckily, this city is not very far away, and it is possible to get there in 20 to 40 minutes by train or, alternatively, 1 hour by bus.
