Porís de Mazo

★★★★★ (7)

Picturesquely located at the Punta del Porís. Already the approach is a highlight and increases the excitement for a beautiful dive with sensational lava formations.

You will of course meet the usual suspects like trumpet fish and puffer fish. With a little luck, however, also stingrays and eagle rays and now and then also big fish.
