This dive site is considered one of the best coastal dives in Spain. Located near the Isleta del Moro rock, it offers a striking contrast of landscapes – pristine white sand beaches, dramatic corridors formed by volcanic rock, and vibrant green meadows of posidonia seaweed. The sheltered location close to the coast makes this area a vital breeding ground for a diverse range of marine life. You'll frequently encounter fry (young fish) from numerous species alongside predators that come to feed on them. It's a truly rewarding experience for divers of all levels, offering a glimpse into a thriving coastal ecosystem.
