This dive site offers access to a cave system via two entry points: the Table Top and Punta de la Monja. After a short swim, divers reach the cave's mouth at approximately 14 meters. The initial section of the cave features yellow corals along the walls and occasional sightings of glass eyes peering from their hiding places. Continuing deeper into the cave (around 10 meters), it opens up into a large chamber frequently inhabited by stingrays being cleaned by small shrimp. Rare canarian lobsterettes may also be observed, scurrying away into shadowy corners as lights are directed toward them. Due to potential hazards and limited visibility in certain areas, this site is not suitable for all divers, and additional experience or training beyond basic certification might be required, potentially including deep diving, cave/wreck diving, or technical diving skills. Always prioritize safety and dive within your personal capabilities.
