    Bocayna is a straightforward dive in the Canary Islands, reaching a maximum depth of 20m. It's a good spot for newer divers or those looking for an easy second dive. You'll generally find a mix of smaller reef fish here, along with some octopuses tucked into crevices if you look carefully. We often use it for skill refreshers or just a relaxed glide through the shallows.
