Dive-site story
Situated along the southeast coastline of Tenerife, this sheltered coastal bay provides an easy shore entry directly off the local jetty and ladder steps. The seabed transitions from volcanic rock formations near shore to wide patches of fine sand interspersed with seagrass beds, hosting an abundance of typical Canarian coastal species.
Extensive colonies of garden eels poking out from the sandy plateau
Frequent winter and spring encounters with angel sharks resting on the bottom
Rocky volcanic ridges lined with anemones, octopus dens, and cuttlefish
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Diving is feasible year-round, with the warmest water and calmest sea states occurring late summer through autumn.
