Shore Dive 8m to 25m -- Mala is a small resort in the north east of Lanzarote. It is a fair way from anywhere else and attracts a number of naturists. There is an almost circular rocky cove which provides the swimming area and the entry and exit point for diving. To reach the cove involves a walk along, and then down the cliff on a rocky path where entry and exit to the water is by a ladder. This is not always possible so we will not undertake the journey to Mala when the winds are from the east or south and there is a swell running. When conditions are good this is a pleasant dive over sand and rock. There are a number of rocky outcrops and an area with caves which can be entered. These are a photographer's delight. Shoals of fish swim around the rocks and Angel Sharks, Rays and Groupers are common. Two dives are possible here, one to the left and the other to the right, so a two dive day is possible at Mala.

It's an easy dive. There´s a field of rocks and mooring blocks, that turns into flat sand at the mouth of the bay. Some small fish, and TURTlES! The turtles are there daily. Many people feed them, so they aren't shy. Normally there isn't any current. There are usually other divers. Be carfully with the many fishermen and boat traffic. All in all it's a nice and easy dive for all divers. Have fun! Follow the TF1 motorway until it terminates (at adeje, although the motorway will soon be extended). Turn left, towards the sea, direction Armeñime. Turn off this mainroad BEFORE Armeñime, and pass the camel park. Follow the road all the way down to the sea, and you should end up in El Puertito.

Los Chuchos is the Spanish name for "the stingrays", and this is one of the most popular dive sites on Tenerife. The site established by the Los Gigantes Diving Centre at the beginning of 1996. It is now so well established that large numbers of stingrays and eagle rays are attracted and will gently take food from the hand of a diver. The site has been featured in several magazine articles, both in the UK and internationally. Some of our customers have dubbed this site "Stingray Village", as they put it, "why go all the way to Cayman Brac when you can have the same thrill on Europe's doorstep". As many as six different species of Ray have been seen in one dive and occasionally we are blessed by a visit from a rare and elusive Bull Ray. The nature of the site means that large pelagics and predators such as barracuda, jacks and tuna are also frequently seen. Who knows what may make an appearance!!! A depth of 18 -20 metres makes it a site suitable for all qualified divers with recent experience Its a boat dive Los Chuchos is also known as The Rays.

Charco del Palo offers a nice circular rocky cove, good swimming and shore diving. Walk to the cove, and go down the cliff to a rocky path then a ladder. The bottom consists of sand and rocky outcrops, including caves which can be entered. Angel sharks, rays and groupers are common. This is also the cove where the nudists swim... look out for mermaids ;-) Northeast side of Lanzarote, in Charco del Palo, near Mala city. The entrance is between Calle Orion and Calle Cefeo, not far from the nudist camp. Mala cove is also known as Charco del Palo.

From the entry spot you can start on a sandy part that brings you to a nice shallow-depth reef, direction South, at only 50 m from the beach. Divers friendly fish, wrasse, parrot fish, blue fin, breams, lizard, scorpion, morray eels (dotted, brown and tiger), octopus (common and spotted), cuttlefish, trumpetfish, nudibranches, shrimps, cardinal, abundant vegetation, the local diving centre removed most of Diadema Antillarum sea urchins and keep the are clean. After the reef, 140° through a sandy area with sea grass until the next reef, from 12 m, angel shark (abundant during the winter and all night dives), stingrays (common and round), eagle ray, bull ray, electric ray, butterfly ray, big schools of barracudas, damselfish, sardines, big anchor spotted at 15 m depth. Small caves full of trumpetfish and schrimps. To move further to the east and spot interesting volcanic rock formations and bigger rays you should rent some DPV scooters which can bring you very close to the lighthouse. Motorway TF-1 halfway between Los Cristianos - Las Americas and Santa Cruz; exit Abades, drive down the main road to the square where are located the restaurants and the local diving centre. Access to the beach behind the square, walk to you left, the entry point is at 3/4 of the beach on a comfortable sandy area.
