About this dive site

This dive site, known as The Ramp, is an excellent location for both beginner scuba divers and confined water training. Its name likely refers to an easy, gradual entry or a natural slope into the water, facilitating a very easy descent ideal for those starting their diving journey. It serves as a practical, accessible spot where new divers can comfortably develop their skills.

The marine life here is surprisingly varied for a training site, offering encounters with angel sharks, barracudas, and groupers for larger sightings. Divers can also frequently spot fascinating smaller creatures such as octopus and nudibranchs, alongside dogfish and schools of sea bream, providing a rich educational experience.

The best time to visit The Ramp is likely year-round given the Canary Islands' temperate climate, with good visibility generally expected. It is especially recommended for beginner divers and students looking for a safe and biodiverse environment. Snorkelers will also find suitable areas to explore, making it a versatile spot for various water activities.
