Roque de Garachico

Diving among orange coral

The Roque del Garachico has huge vertical walls that drop down from its north-eastern side. One of them is home to beautiful orange coral. This is the only known coral of this colour that has grown on a vertical wall as it is usually found on the seabed to prevent their branches from breaking from its weight.

Swimming with great diversity.

In this area you can observe a great variety of fauna, including lobsters, bogas, viejas, moray eels, ornate wrasse, Canary damsels and clownfish.
