Puerto Fenicio

This dive site, Puerto Fenicio, located on the Atlantic coast of Tarifa, Spain, offers a relaxed diving experience suitable for all levels. The site features a combination of rocky and sandy bottom, making it perfect for practicing buoyancy control. Its shallow depth and sheltered location from the east wind provides calm conditions, suitable for both day and night dives. The easy access from both the beach and by boat adds to its convenience. The marine life at Puerto Fenicio is diverse, although not abundant in large pelagic species. You can expect to observe a variety of fish species common to the Atlantic coast of Spain, possibly including some small rays or octopus in the rocky areas. The sandy patches may reveal smaller crustaceans and other invertebrates, perfect for macro photography. The rocky areas also provide shelter for smaller fish. The best time to visit Puerto Fenicio is during the warmer months (May to October), when the water temperature is more comfortable and visibility is usually higher. For freedivers, the shallow depth and calm conditions make it an ideal location for practicing breath-hold dives. Divers of all levels will find the site enjoyable, although the lack of extreme depth or extraordinary marine life may not appeal to those searching for more challenging or heavily populated dive spots. Remember to check weather conditions and currents before your dive.
