About this dive site

This dive site, Las Terrazas, is an ideal boat dive located in Spain, characterized by depths ranging between 19 and 25 meters. Divers should carefully monitor their decompression limits, especially when using air, though Nitrox is recommended. Navigation involves exploring the rocky formations, which are central to the dive experience. There is no specific historical information readily available about the site itself; rather, its attraction lies in its underwater biodiversity.

The marine life here includes a variety of species. Moray eels and conger eels are common inhabitants among the rocks, alongside lobsters. Depending on the season, divers may also encounter sunfish and rays, adding to the excitement of this dive. The rocky environment provides many hiding places for smaller fish and invertebrates.

The best time to visit Las Terrazas is likely during the warmer months when visibility is generally better and a wider variety of marine life is present. A flashlight is recommended to explore crevices and fully appreciate the diversity found within the rocks. Due to the depth, this is not suitable for freediving and the use of a dive computer is advised. Divers should pay attention to their air consumption and always adhere to proper decompression protocols.
