    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    The Fish Tower site in the Canary Islands is a solid choice for a relaxed dive, especially if you're relatively new to the game or just fancy something easy. It’s essentially a pinnacle rising from the seabed, topping out at a comfortable 15 meters, so there's no pressure on depth. We’ve always found it reliable for spotting barracuda, sometimes in decent-sized schools, and the resident octopus population seems to make an appearance more often than not. Visibility here is generally dependable, making it a good spot to get comfortable and enjoy a pleasant hour underwater without any major challenges.
