Los Chuchos
Tenerife, Spain
Los Chuchos is one of the classic boat dives from Las Galletas, just a short two-minute trip from the harbour. Also known as “The City of Stingrays,” this site has a real Tenerife dive feeling from the moment you descend.
The dive starts around 16 metres and leads you over rocky reef formations, overhangs, small caverns and the remains of an old wooden fishing boat. With a maximum depth of around 22 metres, Los Chuchos is best suited for certified divers with a bit more experience.
As you explore the reef, keep an eye on the sand, the rocks and the darker corners. Moray eels, reef fish and other Atlantic residents are often seen here, and stingrays may pass through when the ocean decides to show off.
Close to shore but full of character, Los Chuchos is the kind of dive site that feels different every time.
