About this site
La Baja de Los Realejos is a seamount off the north coast of Tenerife, suited to experienced divers. It rises from about 40 m to roughly 15 m below the surface, and its position exposed to the open ocean brings large schools of fish.
Amberjack and barracuda gather in numbers, and pelagics such as tuna and rays appear now and then. The walls are covered with gorgonians, sponges and small invertebrates, and moray eels and crustaceans are common in the cracks. The site can have currents.
