This time you dive in directly from the lava beach of Los Cancajos, not more than 2 minutes far from the diving base, on the right hand side next to the breakwaters. If you dive along the slope of the lava mountain, you find from approx. 35 m depth sea fan and black corals, which reach down to a depth of more than 50 meter. Occasionally you may also find a streaked gurnard whose bluish wings are an interesting motive for taking pictures. Coming up, one orientates oneself thanks to the rocks of the breakwaters and can easily return to the protected beach.
