About this dive site
This dive site presents a unique opportunity to explore the wreck of 'The Condesito', a 30-meter long cargo ship that ran aground off the southern coast of Tenerife in 1971. The accident led to the construction of Rasca lighthouse as a preventative measure. Today, the wreck lies at the bottom of an underwater canyon approximately 20 meters deep, characterized by prismatic walls and teeming with marine life. The vessel’s anchor point is located 3.7 nautical miles from Los Cristianos port, where currents can increase the dive's difficulty to a moderate level. Divers will encounter several pieces of the ship’s structure as they explore this intriguing underwater site.
