Welcome to Safety Stop!

The ultimate gathering place for scuba enthusiasts, adventurers, and ocean lovers!

Named after the critical pause divers make to decompress and safely ascend, Safety Stop is more than a bar; it’s where divers come to share their stories, relax after an epic day of exploring, and connect with others who share their passion for the underwater world.

Located just a stone’s throw from the beach, Safety Stop embodies the spirit of the dive lifestyle. Here, you’ll find a friendly atmosphere with a hint of salt in the air.

Our menu reflects the adventurous spirit of divers, with specialty cocktails like the “La Medusa” as well as local beers and fresh bites inspired by seaside flavors. At Safety Stop, every guest is part of our dive community.

Whether you’re swapping dive stories, planning your next underwater adventure, or just enjoying a cold drink, our team is here to ensure you have an unforgettable experience. Join us after a dive, during your surface interval, or just because – we can’t wait to raise a glass to the ocean with you.

Don´t forget to visit our partner Xico Dive Center to book your diving adventure and make sure you stop in next door to Xico Dive Shop for all the top diving equipment.

Dive in, drink up, and let’s toast to the adventures that await!
