    Atlantis, off the Canary Islands, is a straightforward dive to 18m. It’s a good spot for newer divers to practice buoyancy and get comfortable in the water. You’ll typically find a scattering of smaller reef fish and some octopus if you look closely. It’s not a showstopper, but it’s a decent option for an easy afternoon dive.
