Deep Blue Diving Fuerteventura

★★★★☆ Cementerio de Barco (Mole)

Along the harbor wall the dive site goes to a maximum depth of 8m. In this protected area, the bottom alternates constantly between sand and stone. At the eastern end of the area, there are many wreck parts, anchors, masts, and a sunken marker buoy.

★★★★☆ Barranco

At Barranco you can see almost everything that swims in the Atlantic. The rugged rock face with the split-off rocks form gorges, breakthroughs, and grottos where life thrives. In the southern part is a large sunken buoy around which shoals of fish gather. In the sandy bottom there are rays.

★★★★☆ Anfiteatro

Along this wall there are many cavities that go up to 3m deep into the wall. In the northern part, there is a submersible tunnel that goes in an arc from 18m depth to the reef top at 12m. On the sandy areas in front of the reef, you can find rays, schools of sea bream, and gorgonians.

★★★★☆ Camino de Altura

As part of the Salinas Reef, the rugged cliff wall goes from 6m water depth to 35m where it merges into the sloping sandy bottom. In front of it, huge boulders rise, which are covered with sponges. In the northern part a deep grotto goes under the reef at the bottom of the wall.

★★★★☆ El Tazar

To the north, along the wall, there is a split-off rock tower that forms a narrow gorge with a 90 degree angle. In front of the tower, huge blocks of lava quickly descend into the deeper sandy ground. The lava blocks lie on top of each other like dominoes.

★★★★☆ El Mirador

From this anchorage you can dive 3 different dive sites. An approx. 5m wide and 20m deep canyon runs parallel to the reef edge. East of it bizarre rock formations pile up, where the fish can hide from the bigger predators. The white sandy ground gives a good contrast.

★★★★☆ El Muellito

Located in the middle area of the Salina reef, this dive site is great for beginners. After the edge of the reef at 7m, the dive goes in several stages of 15m, 19m, 32m, and then to 40m plus. Split off from the reef wall, a rock pin stands alone in front of the reef and provides shelter for young groupers.

★★★★☆ La Piramide

The furthest dive site from the coast. Huge rock formations form gorges, drop-offs, and openings. There are hundreds of opportunities to dive this site. The black fissured lava formations stand out against the white sandy bottom.

★★★★☆ Fortaleza

At the Fortalezza dive site, the reef rises to within 1.5 meters of the water’s surface which has led to many ships running aground here. Around 12 meters deep you can still find some wreckage and pieces of coal from one of the last sunken freighters.

★★★★☆ La Emboscada

At 2m deep, the reef changes into a steep wall, which ends between 20 and 32 meters in a cooled lava flow. From there, lava fingers go out into the falling sandy bottom. In the northeastern part, rock needles stand in front of the reef wall and form gorges. A little deeper there are breakthroughs and caves.

Aqualung

★★★★☆ El Portal

Before the actual reef lies on 32 m depth a big rock wall which goes up to 18 m high. In the middle area there is a diveable breakthrough. After the portal it goes then briskly into the deeper zones where large groupers wait.

Mares

★★★★☆ El Laberinto

In front of the reef edge at 12m, large rocks come up from a depth of 35m and form rugged canyons. Gradually over boulders, it goes deeper up to 40+m. In the northern part, a chimney goes from 34m to 24m, at the bottom of which is one of the numerous orange tree corals.

★★★★☆ El Monasterio

Tightly spaced rocks, openings, and niches dominate this dive site. The peace and quiet and the play of light seem like a monastery. Towards the south, the site slopes down over sandy areas into the depths.

Scubapro

★★★★☆ Tesoro Negro

Sharing the same buoy as El Tazar, Tesoro Negro is known for it’s small overhang/cave where it is common to find sand tiger shark teeth laying on the sandy bottom as well as the pinnacles of rocks followed afterwards.
