Playa Paraiso is a great canyon dive with excellent chances of seeing huge Atlantic rays.

Name Dive Site:	Playa Paraiso
Depth:	10-24m (32-78ft)
Inserted/Added by:	wannadive_tenerife
Specifications:

Playa Paraiso is one of our favorites! After a 20 minute boat ride we anchor on a cliff between two underwater canyons. As we tour both canyons you will be impressed by the sheer abundance of life all around us. Schools of bream and barracuda circle overhead and there are always parrot fish, cuttlefish, trumpet fish, moray eels, glass eyes and more to see. However the highlight is yet to come; out of the blue comes a dark shape, getting bigger and bigger! This is the best spot to get a close encounter with a giant 2 meter Atlantic Ray. Just remember not to hold your breath as this curious but friendly giant brushes past you!

There are many species of ray to be seen here including eagle rays, butterfly rays, common sting-rays and in winter we often see angel sharks. Look but don´t touch!
