About this site
Los Arcos de Playa San Juan lies off Playa San Juan on the west coast of Tenerife, in Spain's Canary Islands. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 25 metres over a sandy bottom and is generally considered an intermediate dive. Seahorses are a regular find here, and divers have also reported eagle rays and stingrays over the sand. Some divers have noted undertow at the site, so conditions are worth checking before entry.
