Diving Spain encompasses not only the dive spots around Spain itself but also the Canary Islands – a Spanish archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa.
Most of the diving around Spain is in the Mediterranean Sea. This warm, temperate sea has very limited communications with other seas. The strait of Gibraltar – the gateway to the Atlantic Ocean – is both narrow and shallow. Water temperatures range from 14 oC to 24 oC in September. In summer you’ll need a 5 mm wetsuit, in winter a 7 mm wetsuit or drysuit.
Do I need Diving Insurance?
When you dive in Spain it is compulsory to have scuba diving insurance to cover you for third party liability and medical recompression therapy. Make sure you take your policy documents with you. For specialist travel insurance with scuba diving down to 50 m or deeper, see Dive Master Insurance. In Adalucia it is compulsory for every recreational diver to hold a dive medical certificate, filled in by a qualified doctor, renewable every 2 years.

Canary Islands
The Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago in the Atlantic off the northwest coast of Africa. They have year-round sun and little rain, and are on the same latitude as Sharm El Sheikh in the Red Sea. It can be windy in the Canaries between June and August, giving rise to a swell. You can dive year round but perhaps the best time to go is between September and February when the weather is calm and the visibility good. Sea temperatures average 18 °C in winter and 23 °C in summer.
You can fly to the Canary islands from all the major European airports. They comprise 13 islands, the major ones being Tenerife, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria, Fuertoventura, La Palma, El Hierro and La Gomera. All volcanic islands but very different. Underwater, the volcanic origins give rise to great formations – arches, caves, pillars. The diving, being in the Atlantic, can be more challenging than if you are used to diving the Red Sea or Mediterranean.
In the Canary Islands you can see both North Atlantic species and Mediterranean species. There are also species endemic to the Canaries – those that are found nowhere else in the world. Together with their adjacent seamounts, the Canary Islands hold the most diverse community of sharks and rays of the whole European Union, with 79 species identified.1. The angel shark (Squatina squatina), for example, was once common throughout Europe’s seas but is now classified as extinct from much of its former range. One last stronghold remains in the Canary Islands but it is under threat from sportfishermen2.

The Canary Islands are part of Macaronesia which also includes The Azores, Madeira and Cape Verde.
Highlights of diving the Canaries? Some of the best dives include La Burrera, to the north of Lanzarote, with its masses of marine life; Baja Bocarones south of El Hierro, a great wall dive on two vertical towers; La Catedral in Gran Canaria, 30 m high lava structure full of caves and arches.
“In the Canaries we’ve seen volcanic soil, no coral except for black corals but only starting from 30 m deep, and impressive underwater cliffs.“

Diving Tenerife, Canary Islands
Tenerife has a variety of dive sites: the calmest waters are found on the southern side. Explore La Gomera’s caves and fascinating lava formations south of San Sebastian. Discover yellow gorgonian sea fans in Valle Gran Rey. In La Palma, enjoy deep dives at Las Cabras and Malpique pinnacles, where large groupers make their home. In July, long-finned pilot whales visit the southwestern coast, always a joy to see.
The north has amazing rock formations, but conditions tend to be trickier here.
You can dive Tenerife year round.
See also Tenerife Dive Operators.
Los Gigantes, in the south west of Tenerife, is named for the 500 m high cliffs reaching down into the sea. A feature of this area is the large and abundant rays, due to a regular ray-feeding dive. There are large schools of smaller fish but generally little bottom or wall life except in very sheltered spots. The weather in Los Gigantes in Autumn and Winter is generally calmer than elsewhere in Tenerife.

30 m
Barranco Seco, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
Barranco Secco (Dry Ravine) is around a 20 minute boat ride north from Los Gigantes marina. An interesting dive. Swim down a slope to 30 m. On the way you will see big shoals of fish: sea bream, grunts, sand smelt and a trumpet fish splitting shoals like a sheep dog. There is little bottom life though until you go shallower, returning to a small arch reaching from 9 to 5 m – full of trumpet fish and look out for the resident nudibranchs. You are also likely to see Rays. One of the dives offered in this area is a Ray-feeding dive, which means that they are large and plentiful. Additionally Atlantic chromis, some of which change colour from gold to silvery blue and back.
Large shoal of fish cascading down Barranco Secco.
Extent of the shoal can be seen at around 12 seconds.
25 m
Rolf’s Cave, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
Swim down the slop to a series of plates of rocks – flat, horizontal, with plenty of hiding spaces underneath. Rolf’s cave is a small cave with an enormous tube worm about 3 cm in diameter. South of Barranco Secco, you can do both dives in one as a drift starting from Rolf’s cave if conditions are right.
38 m
Atlantis 1, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
A very distinctive dive. Dive from the boat own to a triangular plateau at 18 m. This is made up of hexagonal pillars like an underwater Giants’ Causeway. Some very interesting formations made by volcanic larva cooling. At the end of the platform is a single pillar with several fallen-over blocks. Many different types of fish.
30 m
Atlantis 2, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
You can get excellent vis on the Atlantis dives. Similar to Atlantis 1 with the basalt columns.
20 m
Los Chuchos (the Rays), Los Gigantes, Tenerife
This is the Ray-feeding dive. The dive centre takes two dustbins full of old fish to feed to the rays and any other fish who turn up. This attracts three types of ray: an enormous round stingray (Taeniura grabata) about 5 feet long; common eagle ray (Myliobatis aquila) with its head like a charging bull and the common stingray (Dasyatis pastinaca) which is diamond shaped. Although it is interesting to see so many rays at once, all the blood and dead fish particles in the water make the vis very bad.

The dive is not far out from the cliffs by some small rocks. Further out there is an expanse of sand with hundreds of garden eels to which you can get close enough to see their eyes before they retreat into their burrows. Also flatfish and weaver fish.
There is a lot of controversy over fish feeding dives. They change the fishes’ behaviour. Many divers would rather see a ray whilst diving normally rather than attracting them with food. However, without the food there would not be so many rays in this area.
Rays’ mouths are on underside of their bodies and they normally eat animals that live in the sand: worms, crabs, molluscs. Older specimens eat more fish and cephalopods
28 m
Punta Blanca, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
Descend down the anchor chain to around 25 m. Look out for rays and golden spotted snake eel (Myrichthys pardalis). At one time this was packed with fish, but no longer. However, there is still a nice gully, swim throughs and overhangs. Large Pinna rudis mussel on entry. A rocky pinacle with large shoals of chromis.

15 m
Octopus Cove, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
Octopus Cove was previously known as Echo Beach but the owners of the local dive shop renamed it when they saw Octopus there on their first visit. There are no octopus to be seen there now. The dive is along a 10 m deep wall with encrusting coral at its corner. There are lots of black-spined sea urchins and some of the pretty arrow crabs (Stenorhynchus lanceolatus).

“Loads of stingrays and great view.“
Jan Vangheluwe, Belgium, 2006
25 m
Punto Tamaimo, Los Gigantes, Tenerife
You are likely to see large rays here who are not frightened of you as they are regularly fed. On a smaller scale look out for the lovely red-lipped blenny with its snakey body and quick movements.
” Vertical wall full of morays, stingrays, octopus, tuna, parrotfish, bogues, barracuda and angelsharks.”
Pepe Foronda, SeaDive Centre

Devil’s reef, Radazul, Tenerife
“Deep dive. A lot of groupers, red and black coral, greats jackfishes and barracudas, sharks, stingrays, morays, tuna.”
Pepe Foronda, SeaDive Dive Centre
“Beautiful reef. At the end there are a cave with a big and friendly grouper. There are morays, tuna, barracudas, trumpet, trigger fish, parrot fish, eels, giants anemone and stingrays.”
Pepe Foronda, SeaDive Centre
Puerto de la Cruz is on the north side of Tenerife, with black sandy beaches. It is quieter than some of the southern resorts. The weather is wetter and cooler than the south, but still warmer than continental Europe. In winter temperatures average 20 – 22 oC on the coast.
12-40 m
Mountain of Fishes, Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife
“Reef in the open sea (unprotected, always current), upper rim at 8m depth, drops straight off to 37m on eastside and in terrasses to 42m depth on the westside. Little cavern and passthrough at 37m. Another part of this reef is further out and we call it Black Mountain. Wrasses, Sardines, Moray Eels, Barracudas, Tuna, Groupers and Amberjacks.”
Thomas Christoph, Dive Centre ATLANTIK
8-25 m
Tunnel, Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife
“Horizontal volcanic lava tunnel cutting trough a reef. The Tunnel is about 60m long, 10m wide and 4m high. This tunnel- or cave system has a huge entrance and several exits on the other side. In the first third of the tunnel you find also a 3m wide hole in the ceiling where you can surface. At maximum depth at 20m on another reef in front of the main reef you find a little cave. In this cave you encounter a very nice sea anemone and a huge pile of eaten shells in the furthest corner of the cave. As nobody ever encountered the producer of this heap of shell garbage, we call the cave The Cave of the Evil Beast!.”
Thomas Christoph, Dive Centre ATLANTIK
Diving Lanzarote, Canary Islands
Some of the best dive sites in Lanzarote are near Puerto del Carmen, for example the Cathedral and the Hole which are both between 20-30 m. There are eight purpose-sunk shipwrecks near the old harbour.

Cathedral (La Catedral), Lanzarote

“The Entry is by Playa Chica and free descent to the drop off at 20 meters. Down and to the left side we can find the Cathedral. The Cathedral is a huge dome full sponges, knobby corals, anemones and Tube worms . As we ascend over the reef we will see a beautiful bubbles curtain coming up from the bottom providing a very special view of the blue ocean.
“
Rose Toledo, Native Diving Lanzarote, 2015
“30m shore dive. fin out from bay, past house reef (groupers, bream, angel sharks, wrasse and parrot fish) drop down to 20m and then over overhang to cathedral opening at 30m. Yellow sponges in rear of cave. Ascent up onto 20 m area and slow fin back to bay.“

to 18 m
Playa Flamingo, Lanzarote
“Entrance from the boat or the beach. 0-18m. It is a very easy dive and is so beautiful because of the big soles of Grunts, Breams, Mullets, Bogues, tunas, jacks and barracudas. On the white sand is very easy to find also stik rays, angel sharks and electric rays and inside the wall of rocks we can look for the groupers and many other species.
“
Rose Toledo, Native Diving Lanzarote, 2015
Diving Gran Canaria, Canary Islands
Dive sites around Gran Canaria include caves and wrecks. On the East coast at Arinaga is the marine reserve of El Cabron. Elsewhere, one of the highlights is La Catedral.
See dive operators in Gran Canaria.
Lovely dive site with arches, walls and caves. A good place to see nudibranchs, reef fish and bigger fish like barracuda. A boat dive, this rocky outcrop is accessible from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the northeast.
“Really cool dive, just off the beach, outside from Canary Diving Adventures . Depth 6-7 meters. Volcanic reef and a lot of fish.“
Josephine Frank, Denmark, October 2015

” Good drift dive along the mountain. Here you have a good mix between rocky reef and sandy bottom. on the reef, you find octopus, and a lot of life. on the sandy bottom, you have a good chance to find rays and angle sharks “
Josephine Frank, Denmark, October 2015
10-22 m
Reef Pasito Blanco
One of the most southerly dive sites, Reef Pasito Blanco has plateaus, overhangs and ledges. Covered in soft corals you will often see a stingray (Chucho). Large shoals of damselfish sometimes get in the way of the view.
This one is off the north coast of Gran Canaria. A shore dive, the entry point is a large, sheltered harbour. It is a good place for a night dive.
Balearic Islands
Lying 50 to 100 miles off the east coast of spain, the Balearic islands comprise Mallorca, Minorca, Cabrera, Ibiza and Formentara. There is diving on all of these, but if you only go diving in one place in the Balearics make it the Cabrera National Park south of Mallorca. This uninhabited archipelago of 19 islands is Spain’s largest national park and has some of the best-preserved seafloor landscapes in the entire Mediterranean. Only three boats are allowed a day.
Cabrera
The sea life here is amazing. Huge dusky groupers, barracuda and bottlenose dolphins. If you are extremely lucky you might see the extremely rare Mediterranean monk seal or a loggerhead turtle.
To dive Cabrera you must book through an authorised dive centre on Mallorca.
At the entrance to the harbour, a wall dive.
Plenty of swim-throughs – look for octopus, eels and scorpion fish.
Ibiza
See also Ibiza Dive Operators.
Medes Islands, Costa Brava
The Illes Medes are a marine reserve which has some of the best diving in Spain. These tiny islands are reached by boat: the nearest launch site is L’Estartit, Costa Brava. See also Dive Operators visiting Illes Medes.
Named after the dolphin statue at 12 m, at the entrance to one of the caves of Meda Petita. The cave or tunnel cuts through the island, leaving at 5 m. You might also see groupers, eels and red coral.
10-55 m
Vaca (Meda Gran), Medes Islands
A lovely divew with tunnels and caves with colourful gorgonia, vaca nudibranchs.
Costa del Sol

“A stride entry off rocks into the sea. Depths from 8 metres to 19 metres with three large outcrops of rocks giving home to an abundance of life including moray eels, wrasse, bream, mullet, soft coral and octopus.“
Mike, Neptunes Navigator
(1)
“A sea dive suitable for Open Water or Advanced divers. Plenty of life around the rocks, including a resident conger eel, scorpionfish and plenty of nudibranch. More experienced divers can venture a little further to explore the sunken fishing boat and two cars!“
Mike, Neptunes Navigator
(1)
“This wide bay really has something for everyone. Superb for beginners with lots of interest even in the shallower water. Depth ranges between 8 and 25 metres with huge rocks and large crevices in the cliff face. Octopus, sunfish and eels will be seen. Be aware that the current can be quite strong at times around the point.“
Mike, Neptunes Navigator
Galicia
(1)
“In the Nordwest of Spain there is one special area for scuba. In the seabed may be necoras, crabs and shellfish, also many fish, sea anemone, algae and dems lifestyles. There octopuses, cuttlefish, lumbrigantes, robalizas, triggerfish, red spots, morays, congers. Many live animals are very striking. There is a wreck.

Lanzarote is the most easterly of the Canary Islands, which lie off the northwest coast of Africa. The hottest of the Canary Islands, temperatures in Lanzarote are warm throughout the year with August being the hottest – average temperature 25oC – and January the coolest – average temperature 17oC. Sea temperature ranges from 22oC in August to October down to 18oC in February and March.
You can dive Lanzarote year-round. Diving is both by boat and from the shore. The Canary current, which flows from North to South along the African Northwest coast, passes the Canary islands and brings with it nutrient-rich upwellings. This makes for an area of extremely diverse and productive sealife.

“Great experience diving with Scuba Legends. This is a super cozy dive centre with very friendly instructors. You feel like you don’t want to leave. Even less when after the diving you chill on their cozy terrace with stunning views.
Gear is in perfect conditions. They are very organised and professionals. They don’t only take you diving, they make a fantastic day out of it. They genuinely care for their customers.
The diving is gorgeous. We had like warm waters with 30 m vis, angelsharks, rays, huge groupers, nudibranches, moray eels and a big list of other fishes. I didn’t expected such nice diving in Lanzarote.
As a diver, I am glad I choose Scuba Legends dive centre to dive with. If possible, I would give them 10 star .
100% recommended
They have a very cozy and clean dive center“
