El Porís
Tenerife, Spain
El Porís is a flexible and enjoyable shore dive on Tenerife’s east coast, around 20 minutes from the dive center. It is one of those sites that works well for training, relaxed guided dives and divers who enjoy exploring volcanic rock formations.
Following the coastline, the dive leads you past cracks, crevices and rocky corners where the small details make the site interesting. Look closely and you may spot arrow crabs, cuttlefish, octopus, nudibranchs and plenty of Atlantic reef life hiding between the rocks.
El Porís also has a few underwater statues to discover, which adds a fun extra detail to the dive. Easy, varied and full of little surprises, it is a great site for both newer divers and experienced divers who still enjoy taking their time underwater.
