Caleta Abajo – Gran Canaria

In the Caleta de Abajo beach, on the north-west coast of the

island and very close to Sardina, divers can find one of the most

spectacular dives on Gran Canaria, Caleta Baja. It is for divers with some experience as a little dexterity is required on entry and exit.

The great diversity of marine life to be found is outstanding, as

much for the variety as for the quantity. Depending on the time of

year and the state of the sea, divers can experience things they

will ever forget and that will be difficult to better such as waltzing

with manta rays or being surprised by a shoal of horse mackerel.

The big cave with its host bank of grunts and the nearby deep

cut are, amongst others, two key features for divers to visit. All

of this, within the chains of sinuous canyons that disappear into

the sandy bed, where white sand is incessantly pounded by the

ocean and gently covers the basking angel sharks and rays.
