Dive-site story
Set along the southwestern coast of Tenerife, this site features submerged volcanic basalt tongues, sandy patches, and small rocky overhangs. Divers navigate across stepped ledges and shallow gullies where marine life shelters from Atlantic swell. The topography provides a natural route guiding divers out from the sheltered coastal rocks toward open sand plains where rays feed.
