TERESITA DE JESUS
Why dive here
With 140+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola), octopuses, sea turtles and sperm whales - TERESITA DE JESUS offers some of Al Hoceima's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 16-23°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Teresita de Jesus, a fishing vessel resting at 12 metres, is one of Al Hoceima's more accessible wrecks. It's a nice easy dive, making it a good choice if you're looking for something calm to explore. The wreck itself is reasonably intact, offering plenty of nooks and crannies to peer into, though its "dangerous" classification means we don't recommend penetration. You’ll spot the usual suspects here – we've seen moray eels peeking from shadowed corners and schools of damselfish flitting over the hull, which is now well-encrusted with sponges. It’s a good little spot to spend an hour, particularly for those just getting into wreck diving.
