Why dive here
With 76+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - Calzedonia offers some of Canary Islands's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 20-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
Calzedonia sits just off the coast of the Canary Islands, offering a pleasant dive without being overly dramatic. We often see the usual Mediterranean cast here: black sea bream darting around, groups of Canary damsels shimmering in the light, and plenty of ornate wrasse in their bright colours. Keep an eye out for a passing stingray or even a Spiny Butterfly Ray gliding over the sand; we’ve had some good luck with them in the deeper sections. It's a relaxed dive, good for getting back into the swing of things or for a lazy afternoon exploration.
