About this site
Emboscada lies along the coast of Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, the volcanic Spanish archipelago off the northwest African coast. The site takes its name from the exposed, rocky shoreline typical of this part of the island, reachable from nearby coastal towns that serve as bases for local dive operators. It is a reef site reaching a maximum depth of around 40 metres, and is generally rated an intermediate dive.
