reef

The bottom of the dive site is of golden sand with rocks which are full of sea life, making it perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving baptisms.

The little Hawaii is unique with the huge branching red coral where you can regularly find trumpetfish hiding around it. Just 6m deep you will find a beautiful reef with colorful flora and fauna or you can descend to explore the caves and larger fishes. The dive begins from the anchoring line along the line of buoys that mark off the swimming area. It descends leaving to one side the border of large rocks that extends out towards the coast and, on the other side, a sand slope that goes down to the drop off. We go down the sand to the cliff, following one of the two rock crests depending on the current, which can be strong in this area, and our own preference. At the end of the crest more to the east, at a depth of 18 m under a ledge, grows one of the shallowest branches of orange coral in the Canaries. In the deepest part of the cliff (at about 28 m), to the east, we will find a small cave with a large size hanging encrusting anemone accompanied by fairy basslet. The diving site is a perfect place to observe the passing of migrating species that live in the deep blue waters. The site features a reef with many overhangs and ledges, where divers can find fantastic red coral, an array of sponges, tuna, amberjack, devil rays, dolphins, turtles and giant whales, and more. The best time to go is from June to October. The average air temperature is 21C/70F in January and 29C/84F in August. The water temperature ranges from 18C/64F in February to 23C/73F in September and October.
