Bajón del Río

★★★★★ (1,850)

Three huge mushroom-shaped volcanic rocks, formed after thousands of years of waves and currents, rise from the sandy bottom at about 15m deep creating a unique landscape. The games of light between the sand and the overhangs, cracks and lava rocks, as well as the abundance of life, create a magical atmosphere

Banks of breams, dreamfishes and jacks are hovering under the mushrooms, barracudas and amberjacks above; moray eels, lobsters, nudinbranches and prawns in the cracks, rays on the sand
