Dive-site story
Situated along the harbor breakwater in southern Fuerteventura, Pared del Muelle features a gradual descent where tetrapod blocks and volcanic boulders give way to an expansive sandy floor. The sheltering structure serves as an artificial reef, drawing schooling Atlantic fish and providing hunting and resting grounds for rays and benthic sharks.
Sandy bottom hosting resting angelsharks during cooler periods
Breakwater crevices occupied by moray eels, octopus, and cleaner shrimp
Frequent visits from large common stingrays and butterfly rays
