Gran Canaria does not currently operate a Bonaire-style island-wide marine park tag for ordinary recreational divers or snorkelers. Budget instead for guided dive fees, rental gear, paperwork such as insurance or medical declarations, and any local accommodation charges. Conservation obligations still matter: El Cabron is officially highlighted as a candidate area for future Arinaga Marine Reserve status, and angel sharks are fully protected wildlife.
| Frais | Montant | S'applique à | Où payer | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Island-wide marine park tag | No island-wide recreational dive tag currently charged Not applicable | Scuba, freedive, and snorkel visitors | No visitor tag is currently required for normal recreational diving or snorkeling | This is not permission to ignore conservation rules. Follow Spanish responsible-diving guidance, avoid collecting marine life, never feed wildlife, and use official moorings or operator procedures where available. |
| Mogan municipal tourism action fee | Verify current rate with accommodation; introduced at EUR 0.15 per person per day Per overnight stay in tourist accommodation in Mogan municipality, subject to municipal updates | Visitors staying in Puerto de Mogan, Taurito, Puerto Rico, Arguineguin, and other Mogan municipal areas | Collected by the accommodation provider when applicable | This is an accommodation levy, not a dive permit. It matters for divers basing on the south-west coast. |
| Guided two-dive local package | Operator-priced; confirm current shore, boat, rental, nitrox, and transfer rates before booking Per dive day | Certified scuba divers | Local dive centers in Arinaga, Las Palmas, Sardina, Maspalomas, Puerto Rico, and Mogan | Pricing varies with shore versus boat logistics, equipment rental, nitrox, hotel transfers, and group size. Rates change by shop, shore versus boat logistics, equipment rental, nitrox, hotel transfers, and group size. |
| Dive insurance and medical paperwork | No government visitor fee; insurance cost varies Per operator check-in or policy period | Certified divers, students, and some guided experience programs | Dive insurer before travel; medical declaration or physician certificate through your operator's process | Many Spanish and Canary Islands operators ask for certification proof, dive insurance, and medical screening. Bring documents offline in case mobile coverage is poor at shore sites. |
| Protected wildlife compliance | No fee; disturbance can trigger enforcement Always | Anyone encountering angel sharks, rays, turtles, or other marine life | Not sold; follow the law and site briefings | Angel sharks are protected. Do not kill, capture, disturb, touch, feed, uncover, chase, or damage habitat. Keep respectful distance and submit sightings when possible. |
