El Marrajo

★★★★★ (3,233)

This small circular shoal is one of the best dive sites for beginners near the islet of Lobos. The bottom, made of white sand and spare rocks, varies between 5 and 8 meters in depth, while the top of the rock reaches 3 meters. The vivid light and colors due to the shallow depth and the abundance of life stand out

Several schools of fish are found around the shoal: breams, dreamfish, steenbras and even yellowfin and amberjacks. On the bottom, crabs, lizardfish, octopus, rays & scorpionfish dwell
