Why dive here
With 76+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - Atlantida offers some of Canary Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 20-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
Atlantida sits at a comfortable 23 meters, making it a good spot for newer divers getting their fins wet in the Canaries. The main attraction here is often the easy depth and generally calm conditions, perfect for practicing buoyancy or just enjoying a relaxed drift. While it might not blow your mask off with massive pelagics, you’ll likely find octopus tucked into crevices and schools of bream drifting past. It’s a solid choice for a casual, no-fuss dive.
