Las Coloradas

★★★★★ (2,848)

In this immense sandbank, there is a wall under which a ledge hides a sea of ​​life. Enjoying the simplicity of this dive and the pleasure of diving with complete safety makes us aware that there are many reasons to call the Canary Islands “Islands Fortunate.“

Pigs, abbots, horse mackerels, moray eels, pejeperros, giant anemones, cleaning shrimp, and octopuses are some of the species that we can admire looking under the ledge.
