Follow lava flows into the deep Atlantic and explore remote volcanic reefs around Malpique with a team that treats technical diving as an art form.
Punkfish Diving La Palma operates from the volcanic south of La Palma in the Canary Islands, using their own Jeeps to reach remote dive sites around the island's southern tip. Their signature spot is Malpique, which they describe as their "home reef," and they regularly visit popular locations along the south coast while also covering eastern and western areas. The team specializes in small-group guided dives where divers can follow lava flows into depth, navigate rock gorges (Felsschluchten), and observe Atlantic marine species. They are particularly known for technical diving capabilities, offering sidemount configurations, Trimix fills, and decompression theory training through their "Dekotheorie" book and courses. Beyond standard guided dives, Punkfish Diving provides comprehensive SSI certification programs from beginner to instructor level (ITC), with a strong emphasis on high-quality education that prepares divers for any conditions. The operation also offers snorkeling experiences and introductory diving for beginners.
