Tufia
★★★★☆
(11,506)
Tufia (Playa de Tufia) located just north of the Airport. A small beach/bay is accessed via a well maintained pedestrian road from the upper car park down to waters edge, this is quite a steep hill on the way back up, it will test your aerobic abilities for sure ;-) Depth ranges from 15-21m, recommend Open water +.
A great site for finding wildlife, Nudibranchs, Octopus and Rays, can all be found on the rocky bottom composition, multiple Schoals of fish are also found here.
