Sea Trek and Diving for handicaped people
Book on Viator →Operated by Native Diving Lanzarote · Bookable on Viator
A wheelchair in the ocean? Yes, here. Sea Trek for handicapped people in Costa Teguise uses a water-adapted wheelchair and a team of three experienced instructors to help you take part in two guided underwater activities. The focus is simple: get you safely down where you can see the seabed, with equipment designed for real access, not “one size fits all.”
I like how practical the whole setup is. You’re not just watching from the sidelines—you’re kitted up with the right gear and guided step by step. The other big plus is the human side: the staff are patient, calm, and tuned to safety, including how they explain protecting sea life.
One consideration before you go: pictures and videos aren’t included, so if you want underwater photos, you’ll need to plan for that separately.

Key Things I’d Write on a Post-It Before You Go

- Water-adapted wheelchair included: built to support access in the water for Sea Trek and the follow-on activity.
- Three-instructor supervision: you get hands-on support from a small, focused team.
- Helmet and wetsuit provided: fewer shopping worries and more time spent getting ready on-site.
- Best fit for non-divers and first-timers: the experience is built for people who don’t have underwater experience.
- Sea-life awareness is part of the session: safety instructions include how to protect the environment.
Why Sea Trek Works So Well in Costa Teguise

Costa Teguise is a comfortable base for Lanzarote water time, and this experience is set up around one big idea: accessibility. Instead of treating disability as an obstacle, the center created a water-adapted wheelchair that lets people participate in the underwater part of the day without needing special mobility tricks.
In the reviews, you can feel the main difference right away: they don’t just show up with a generic plan and hope for the best. They adjust the process for the person in the chair. That matters, because the water brings enough variables already. When the equipment and staff are built for accessibility, you spend less energy worrying and more energy looking around.
If you’re able-bodied, this still feels worth doing. The format isn’t about testing you. It’s about giving you an on-ramp to the seabed with a support team present. Even if you’ve never been underwater, you’re not guessing what to do.

The 3-Hour Flow: What Your Time Is Likely Spent Doing

This is approximately a 3-hour experience. You’ll start at Avenida del Jablillo, Av. del Jablillo, 35508 Costa Teguise, and it returns you back to the meeting point.
While the exact minute-by-minute schedule isn’t laid out, the structure is clear based on what’s included and how the staff are described:
- Arrive and get oriented
You’ll meet at the address listed above, near public transportation. Expect a short run-through focused on safety and how the session protects sea life.
- Get kitted up
The experience includes a helmet, wetsuit, and the underwater wheelchair. That means a good chunk of time is about fitting and getting comfortable in the gear, not just “jump in and go.”
- Do Sea Trek
Sea Trek is the wheelchair-supported underwater activity. This is where the water-adapted wheelchair is the star, helping you move through the water under supervision.
- Do the second underwater activity
The product includes an additional activity after Sea Trek. Reviews point out that the team makes it possible for non-divers to experience the seabed. The key is that the staff keep the process supported and clear.
- Return to the meeting point
The tour ends back where you started, so you’re not stuck figuring out transport after wet hair and sandy gear.
Tip: plan your day as if you’ll be a bit slow afterward. Even if you feel fine, you may want a little time to dry off and unwind.
Meeting Point in Real Life: Avenida del Jablillo
The meeting point is Avenida del Jablillo, in Costa Teguise. The listing notes it’s near public transportation, which is a big deal here. When you’re going for a water activity, you want a meeting point that doesn’t force you into complicated logistics.
The activity runs Monday through Saturday, 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. That window is useful for planning. If you’re trying to fit this around other Lanzarote sights, morning and early afternoon are your best bets.
Also remember: the tour is private, meaning only your group participates. That typically helps in two ways. First, you’re not squeezed into a large crowd while getting fitted. Second, the instructors can focus on your group’s needs and pace.
The Gear That Actually Matters: Helmet, Wetsuit, Underwater Wheelchair

This experience includes the essentials: helmet, wetsuit, and the underwater wheelchair.
That matters more than it sounds. When you don’t have to source gear, you remove a common travel headache. And when the center supplies the wheelchair designed for water use, you’re not trying to make “land equipment” work in a marine environment.
Here’s what to keep in mind for comfort:
- The wetsuit changes how you feel right away. It’s not just warm; it affects how you move and how your body settles in the water.
- The helmet is there for safety and protection. Wear it as instructed and follow the staff’s guidance closely.
- The underwater wheelchair is the core adaptation. The experience is built around it, which is exactly what you want for accessibility.
If you’re going with someone who needs the chair support, it’s worth arriving with a calm mindset. The fitting and positioning process is often where confidence is built.
Sea Trek for Accessibility: What You’ll Feel During the Main Part
Sea Trek is the signature activity. It’s described as a new product designed for handicapped people, with a water-adapted wheelchair created so participants can take part in underwater activities.
From the reviews, two themes come through strongly:
1) Safety is treated like a real process
People highlight clear instructions and safe handling. That’s important. In water, small things can feel big. So you’ll want to listen closely, ask questions early, and avoid rushing.
2) The team is patient and tuned to the person
One review specifically mentions the staff being patient and understanding. Another talks about the center adjusting the wheelchair so the participant could go under the water and have the same kind of experience as others.
That combination is why Sea Trek works for a wide range of abilities. It’s not only about the equipment. It’s about how the instructors guide it.
The Follow-On Underwater Activity: For First-Timers Who Want the Seabed
The package includes Sea Trek and an additional underwater activity. Even if you’ve never been underwater, the tone of the reviews suggests this is the type of experience built for non-divers and first visits.
In plain terms: you’re not expected to already know what to do. You’re expected to follow the safety instructions and let the team guide the experience.
Also, the staff emphasize protection of sea life. You don’t need to be a marine biologist to benefit from this. What you do need is a willingness to follow directions so you don’t disturb animals and habitats.
If you’re nervous about the idea of being under the water, lean into the “guided, supported” part of the experience. This isn’t a solo mission. It’s a supervised session with instructors present.
Who This Is Best For (And Who Might Think Twice)

This is designed for handicapped people, and it’s supervised by three experienced instructors. That makes it a great option when you need real accessibility support in the water—not just friendly assistance.
It may also suit:
- Non-divers who want a guided seabed experience without needing underwater training.
- Anyone celebrating a special moment who wants the group to feel secure and cared for. One review describes doing it for a major anniversary and calling it unforgettable.
Who might think twice?
- If you’re only interested in photos and video memories, note that pictures/videos aren’t included. The experience includes gear, but not documentation.
- If weather is unstable, be flexible. The experience requires good weather, and if it’s canceled due to poor conditions, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.
Price and Value: Is $208.23 Worth It?
At $208.23 per person, this isn’t a budget “try something” activity. It’s a specialized, instructor-led experience.
Here’s what you’re paying for:
- A water-adapted wheelchair designed for the program
- Helmet and wetsuit included
- Three-instructor supervision
- A setup built for people who need accessibility support
- A format that can work for non-divers
Now the value question: what do you get that you can’t easily recreate on your own? Access and support in the water. Most people can’t DIY a water-ready wheelchair setup and expect the same level of safety and guidance.
The one value trade-off is that photos and videos aren’t included. If underwater photos are part of your “must-have,” consider that cost when deciding.
Weather and Day-of Reality: The One Variable You Can’t Ignore
This activity requires good weather. That’s normal for marine experiences, and it’s worth building into your plans. If the sea conditions aren’t right, the center may cancel and offer a new date or refund.
If you’re visiting Lanzarote, try to leave some slack around your schedule. If you’re packed with activities, rescheduling can be annoying. But you’ll likely be happier with a calm buffer day than forcing it into an overbooked itinerary.
A Quick Note on Guides You Might Remember
Names pop up in the reviews, and that’s a good sign. One person thanks Jose specifically. Another calls out José Luis for a serene experience, noting scooter support in his case as a paraplegic.
Even if you don’t get the same staff, it tells you something real: the team is used to working with people who have different mobility needs. When staff are experienced with your exact concerns, the session usually feels less stressful.
Should You Book Sea Trek and the Adapted Underwater Experience?
I’d book it if you want a guided underwater experience that’s built around accessibility, not around adapting yourself to the activity. The combination of a water-adapted wheelchair, helmet/wetsuit included, and three-instructor supervision is the heart of the value.
You should also book it if you’re a non-diver or first-timer. The experience is framed around clear instructions and safe handling, and it sounds designed so people can focus on the seabed instead of guessing what to do next.
Hold off if your priority is photo/video deliverables, because they’re not included. And keep an eye on weather, because good conditions are part of the deal.
