Why dive here
With 76+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - Cuevitas offers some of Canary Islands's richest cave diving. Water ranges 20-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
Cuevitas offers a simple cave dive, ideal for those new to overhead environments. The maximum depth is 14m, making it accessible for beginners. Inside, the light plays off the rock formations; it's a calm spot to practice buoyancy and finning in confined spaces. We'd suggest it as a good first step before tackling more complex cave systems elsewhere.
