Scuba Diving on Fuerteventura
Although Fuerteventura offers many possibilities to get in and out by land, there is a wide range of boat dives too. As you like it, you can make use both possibilities. Of course, some places require one of the two methods.
Underwater there is a rugged lava landscape with canyons, overhangs, small caves, holes and crevasses. A wreck at 50m is reserved for experienced divers only. In addition, there are plenty of sandy areas that accommodate a wide variety of species.
Fuerteventura offers the typical Canary Islands biodiversity and good chances of big fish. On hardly any other island are as many large groupers to be found as here.
The dive centres are spread along the southern and eastern coastline of Esquinzo via Costa Calma, Las Playitas to Corralejo.
Dive Sites on Fuerteventura
Most of the dive sites are located along the eastern and southern coast of the island. There are many land-based entrances, but also boat trips that are worthwhile.
