This dive site, Magic II, is located along the harbour wall of the Anfi Del Mar marina in Gran Canaria, Spain. It serves as an artificial reef, offering divers the choice to follow the man-made wall or explore the natural rocky reef just beneath. Depths range from 5 to 20 meters, with an average of 8 meters, making it an accessible and enjoyable dive for various skill levels. The site's artificial nature provides a unique ecosystem within the sheltered marina environment.
The sandy bottom areas are home to intriguing marine life such as rays and octopus. Venturing among the rocky formations reveals a surprising abundance of smaller creatures, including a variety of nudibranchs and sea slugs, sea cucumbers, Canarian lobsters, and scorpionfish. This site is particularly renowned for its macro diversity.
Magic II offers enjoyable diving year-round, with the sheltered location often providing consistent conditions. The site is excellent for macro photography enthusiasts due to the wealth of small invertebrates. For freedivers and snorkelers, the shallower sections of the reef and wall provide ample opportunity to observe marine life in clear, calm waters. Always be mindful of potential boat traffic within the marina area when surfacing.
