Diving with Manta Rays September 7, 2006
Posted by andylovie in : Aquatic Wildlife Tenerife, Customers , 2commentsHaving spent the last 3 and a bit years diving here I still get a trill every time I get in the water you just never know what you are going to see. One the first dive of the day to the dive site “Roncardores de Palm Mar”. There are some fish farms there and occasionally dolphins will come in for a quick snack and they were there this morning. What was decided was to change the dive plan slightly and head out under the fish farms to see in the hope of getting some snaps of dolphins underwater. Under the fish cages were thousands of sardines in it’self spectacular but then turning around there was a passing MantaRay…..!!!! and I had a camera !!!! Mantas’ are far more common in El Hierro and not often seen here in Tenerife…..We just happened to be in the right place at the right time. Then to cap it all we spent 20 mins on the surface watching dolphins ….what a dive !!!

I’ll get some larger pickies up on the main website as soon as.
Diving Tenerife & El Hierro September 1, 2006
Posted by TheBoss in : Diving Trip Reports , 2commentsThe diving in El Hierro is world class… add to that it’s a remote location so you don’t get the huge numbers of divers that you do in places like the Red Sea and it makes for a great diving holiday.Click to see more info on El Hierro

There are only a few Dive Centres on the Island that run these trips certainly we were one of the first where we lead others follow it seems….
