Why dive here
With 76+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - Las Coloradas offers some of Canary Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 20-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
Las Coloradas is a straightforward shore dive, ideal for beginners or those getting back in the water. Dropping to a maximum of 16 meters, you'll find a gently sloping reef with plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. We often spot octopus, cuttlefish, and various smaller reef fish here. It’s a good spot for a relaxed dive, especially when you want to avoid anything too challenging.
