About this dive site

This dive site, Buracona, is a remarkably unique volcanic cove and the most well-known on the island. It’s a naturally occurring siphon, shaped by a roof collapse that allows sunlight to penetrate, creating a truly special underwater environment. The light conditions are exceptional, offering incredible lighting displays and beautiful sunbeams throughout the dive. This location provides a tranquil experience due to its sheltered nature.
