BUCEO ISLA BONITA

★★★★★ Malpique - Cruces

The crosses in Malpique is probably one of the most famous dive spots in this area. You will find 39 crosses set as a monument for the martyrs of Tazacorte. Besides exploring the amazing crosses, the area surrounding the monument is a beautiful dive site as well.

★★★★☆ La Garra

The most characteristic dive at Los Cancajos beach leads you to The Claw, a popular rock surrounded by tons of fish. To get there, head along the amazing lava formations and beautiful canyons.

★★★★★ Las Cabras

This dive is through a really young lava landscape: Las Cabras is the result of the last volcanic eruption in 1971. In the middle of the black volcano landscape, you will find one of the most colourful dive sites on La Palma. Young lava, perfect visibility, and black coral - a beautiful place do dive.

★★★★☆ Playa La Bombilla

Small fisherman village at the west side of La Palma, where we find a huge number of arches on a very shallow dive, or can follow some significant lava flews down into the deep blue.

★★★★☆ Malpique: Torre de Malpique

A spectacular wall dive for experienced divers. Dive through the open blue to reach a tower covered with black coral and return through an impressive arch. The most stunning dive site on La Palma.

★★★★★ Bahia de Los Cancajos

The bay of Los Cancajos is the perfect confined water for Try Scuba, courses and snorkling. In this sheltered bay we can meet all the marine life that lives here, without going deep.

★★★★☆ Canyon

Just outside the bay you will find an impressive canyon with colourful sponges and lots of hiding fish. A beautiful dive for beginners and a good start into a more advanced dive.

★★★★☆ Gorgonias

This is a deep dive on the south end of Los Cancajos beach. You will follow a downward slope that leads to fields of red Gorgonias. If you go a bit deeper you will even see black corals. On the way back you can go through the shallow lava labyrinth called “Mordor“.

★★★★☆ Faro de Fuencaliente

Access to the water is in a shallow area full of volcanic formations, the result of the Teneguia eruption. This site offers diving for all levels with a great variety of different dive routes.

★★★★☆ El Ala

This site is on the wing of a Cessna plane that sits at nearly 30m. It is a nice attraction and the tiny reef beside it is full of surprises. An easy deep dive, as long as air consumption is ok.

★★★★★ Charco Verde

Charco Verde is one of the few places that are clearly more comfortable to dive by boat than by land. Boat tours are offered by local diving centres.

★★★★☆ Puerto Naos - Playa Chica

Easy access to the water, with family plan nearby. Easy dives for all levels, because thanks to the verticality of the island, you have both shallow and very deep areas from the same entrance to the water. Variety of routes from the same access point.

★★★★★ Malpique: Colada Teneguía

A diving area that shares access to the water with Malpique’s dives, but much less crowded than its neighbors and therefore, full of underwater life.

★★★★☆ Punta de los Molinos

Just beneath the windmills there is a small, but beautiful beach. The entry is a bit difficult, and currents can be strong, but this is exactly why it is so fascinating....

★★★★☆ Mordor

At the right side of Los Cancajos you will enter a lava labyrinth, which you will cross to get either to descend deeper to the field of garden eels or stay shallow to reach a lava tunnel. A spectacular dive site.
