Barco Chino
★★★★★
(683)
Through a big rock gate, you will reach a plateau at 18m deep with two towers near the edge. An exciting dive with lots of holes, caverns, and swim-throughs. Landscape diving at its best!
You can find large grouper and several macronese groupers. In the holes hide lobsters, bear crabs, lancet ghost crabs, and morays.
