Faro del Lobos

★★★★★ (260)

This deep dive site is the northernmost underwater extension of the volcanic plateau that descends towards the bottom. You will descend on the platform around 24m and go towards the east where the plateau drops towards a sandy bottom. Max depth 35m. Massive fallen rocks create cracks and beautiful overhangs.

Yellowfin jacks and barracudas are frequently observed hunting sardines. Angel sharks and rays rest on the sandy bottom and groupers are hiding in the cracks of the volcanic plateau.
