    Arrecife del Cañaveral offers a solid Mediterranean reef dive off Al Hoceima. Expect a mix of hard and soft corals, with smaller reef fish darting amongst them. It's a relaxed spot, suitable for divers looking for a straightforward, pleasant dive without strong currents. We'd suggest it for divers who appreciate the subtler beauty of a healthy, accessible reef.
