¿Alguna vez has sentido que el buceo es como volar, pero bajo el agua? ✈️🌊 Imagina que tu vuelo está llegando a su fin y necesitas reducir la velocidad antes de aterrizar 🛬. En el buceo, esa «reducción de velocidad» se llama parada de seguridad y es una de las mejores formas de proteger tu salud mientras exploras el mundo submarino 🐠✨.
La parada de seguridad es una pausa voluntaria (¡pero muy recomendable!) que realizamos al final de una inmersión, normalmente a 3-5 metros de profundidad durante 3 minutos 🧭⏱️. El objetivo principal es dar tiempo al cuerpo para liberar el exceso de nitrógeno acumulado en los tejidos durante la inmersión 💨🫁.
Aunque no es obligatoria en inmersiones poco profundas 🐟, se considera una práctica estándar entre buceadores responsables 🤿💯, sobre todo en el buceo recreativo y profesional.
Cuando buceamos, el cuerpo absorbe nitrógeno debido a la presión ambiente 🌡️. Si ascendemos demasiado rápido, ese nitrógeno puede formar burbujas en el organismo 🫧 —lo que puede provocar dolor en las articulaciones 🤕, mareos 😵, parálisis 🧑🦽 o incluso la muerte ☠️. La parada de seguridad actúa como una medida de prevención esencial 🛟🛑.
Además, sirve para:
Hacer una transición suave hacia la superficie 🧘♂️
Verificar el equipo 🛠️ y el entorno antes de salir 🌅
Evitar interferencias con embarcaciones en superficie 🚤
Dar tiempo al compañero de buceo para ascender de forma sincronizada 🤝
Por eso, aunque hayas hecho una inmersión sencilla 🐡, nunca está de más hacer una parada de seguridad ✅✨.
No hay que confundir la parada de seguridad con la parada de descompresión obligatoria 🚫. La primera es preventiva y opcional; la segunda, es obligatoria cuando se exceden los límites de no descompresión 📉.
Este tipo de paradas se cubren en el curso PADI Advanced Open Water Diver 🧑🎓 y en el curso PADI Rescue Diver 🆘 donde se profundiza en la planificación y manejo de inmersiones más complejas.
Para que sea efectiva, debes seguir estas recomendaciones 📋:
Realiza la parada a una profundidad de entre 3 y 5 metros 📏
Mantente en esa profundidad durante al menos 3 minutos ⏳
Controla tu flotabilidad neutra usando tu BCD 🎈
Vigila tu ordenador de buceo o profundímetro 📟
Mantén contacto visual con tu compañero de inmersión 👀🤿
Durante ese tiempo, puedes disfrutar del paisaje marino 🐙, observar especies curiosas 🦑 o simplemente relajarte flotando cerca del cabo o la boya de referencia 🪢.
Aunque lo ideal es hacerla en todas las inmersiones 🌍, hay situaciones donde resulta altamente aconsejable:
Inmersiones de más de 18 metros de profundidad 🧭
Si has estado bajo el agua durante más de 30 minutos ⏱️
Si has hecho varias inmersiones en un mismo día 🔁
Si te sientes fatigado 😴 o no completamente al 100%
Si tienes factores de riesgo como sobrepeso, edad avanzada o mala hidratación 💧
En Deep Ocean Diver recomendamos incluirla siempre, incluso en las inmersiones guiadas 🚩 y bautismos de buceo como hábito saludable desde el primer contacto con el mar 🌊🐬.
Evita el aleteo excesivo 🦶: reduce el movimiento para conservar energía ⚡
Utiliza una boya de señalización para alertar a las embarcaciones 🚩
Si no hay cabo disponible, mantén una buena referencia visual 👁️ o usa a tu compañero 🤝
Controla el ritmo de la respiración: lenta 🧘, profunda 🫁 y constante 🔄
Estas recomendaciones se explican en el curso PADI Open Water Diver 🧑🏫 y se amplían en cursos como buceo profundo o flotabilidad neutra.
Contar con buen equipo marca la diferencia 💪. Un profundímetro confiable, un ordenador de buceo y un chaleco bien calibrado son clave 🔧🎯. Marcas como CRESSI 🐬 ofrecen productos muy fiables tanto para principiantes como para buceadores avanzados 🏅.
No olvides contratar un seguro de buceo adecuado como los de DAN Europe 🛡️, que te cubren en caso de emergencia.
La parada de seguridad es una acción simple pero fundamental que puede salvar vidas 💖. Adoptarla como parte de tu rutina de buceo es un signo de responsabilidad, formación y compromiso con tu bienestar 🧠💪.

EXCELENTE A base de 167 reseñas Tom S11/06/2024Verificada Great Day of Diving We were pleasantly surprised with a second day in Tenerife during our cruise. This gave us the opportunity to experience the diving here. We were picked up at the cruise port and taken to the dive shop. The fitting and equipment were top notch. The dive sites were surprisingly close to the port. During the last dive we were rewarded when David found a seahorse, one of only a handful I've seen. The shipwreck was very nice, with good visibility, and great marine life all around. Sooo many garden eels. We had a great time on a beautiful day with friendly, professional dive staff. I would highly recommend Deep Ocean Diver if you are going to dive in Tenerife. Coastal1831506743713/05/2024Verificada Professional and fun guides We absolutely loved our boat dives with David. The underwater landscapes and marine life in this area is fun to watch. We'd definitely come back! Stephen Crome20/03/2024Verificada Awesome shop! I had an excellent shore dive today. Our guide was very professional and made sure we were safe at all times. He found all kinds of cool things including two octopus. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. JMs23/02/2024Verificada Perfect for families, great logistics 3 days trip with my 3 kids: fantastic experience. I particularly appreciated the logistics (very well managed including crisp communication from first contact), the expert guide and the whole installation (bus, dive center and nice comfortable boat) Philippe P10/10/2023Verificada Good Experience Friendly staff and nice dives. We were really pleased with our experience. Visibility was great and we saw many octopuses! Jas09/06/2023Verificada Amazing Amazing guys at the dive Center, had a reaaally amazing dive with Simon a day before, and really nice zodiac dives as well, thanks a lot!!! Jassin Andreea K15/07/2022Verificada Amazing Amazing experience! Victor and Laura were really professional, patient and helpful. Highly recommend. JOANNE M11/03/2022Verificada Absolutely top notch! We are a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids ages 10 and 12) that travelled to Tenerife in March 2022, and both our kids did their PADI open water course over a 4-day period. My husband and I both have our advanced open water certificates and have dealt with dive shops all around the world, and we can honestly say these guys (and gals!) are top notch!The kids spent most of their time with Victor as their instructor, and he was absolutely fantastic. So much enthusiasm, support, patience, encouragement and a genuine interest in making them succeed and love the sport, while also ensuring they demonstrated all the necessary knowledge and skills. This was such an amazing introduction to diving - I can't thank Victor enough. The kids were so happy and proud to have got their open water certificate but also very sad that they diving days with Victor were coming to an end. It's extremely rare (and special) that someone makes such an impression on them, so you should take that as a HUGE complement! They were extremely complementary of everyone they dealt with at the store (including the boat captain)- thanks to you all!! My kids don't speak Spanish but the instructors are fully bilingual and able to teach them in English. Thanks for such an amazing experience and creating what I expect will be a life-long love of diving! (They are already begging to do their advanced open water as soon as possible). My husband also did his nitrox course with Deep Ocean Diver as well, it also was great. I would highly recommend this place to others and will definitely dive with them again next time we are in Tenerife. Thanks for such a fabulous week! Adrian G29/12/2021Verificada perfect I went to Deep Ocean Diver to get the Open water training and it's been just perfect. The instructors were super professional and skilled, and at the same time so friendly and willing to make the training a fun and valuable moment. I even ended up doing the Advanced certification, and the whole team was so kind to arrange the schedule to fit with my availabilities.You can really feel that you're getting a good training and that it's not rushed, they really take the time for you to understand, practice and enjoy. And you got plenty of good advice from your instructors.five stars! Igor S09/05/2021Verificada Couldn't choose better The main reason I chose to come to Tenerife is because I wanted to get a PADI certification, therefore I looked for the best diving school in the area and organized my whole vacation around it.Well, I couldn't do better.The guys are great. Victor and Arnau were the best instructors I could ever ask for. It's not easy to make a proper training about something that is so serious and technical, and still keep it fun and never boring, but they have been amazingly up to the task. David, although he was never in the water with us, made me feel his presence by throughly planning my next steps on a daily basis, just what one would expect from a leader. 10/10 guys! Also Radazul is a perfect place to pick an accomodation, quiet, nice, not too expensive and pretty strategical to move across Tenerife. All in all, I really couldn't have made a better choice. :)
