Why dive here
With 76+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - El Marrajo offers some of Canary Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 20-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
El Marrajo is a shallow dive, maxing out at 8m, making it a great spot for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed swim. We often see moray eels peeking from the rocky cracks and schools of bream drifting past. It's a straightforward entry, usually calm, and ideal for building confidence or just enjoying an easy day in the water. Don't expect dramatic topography, but it's a pleasant dive all the same.
