As part of the Salinas Reef, the rugged cliff wall goes from 6m water depth to 35m where it merges into the sloping sandy bottom. In front of it, huge boulders rise, which are covered with sponges. In the northern part a deep grotto goes under the reef at the bottom of the wall.

To the north, along the wall, there is a split-off rock tower that forms a narrow gorge with a 90 degree angle. In front of the tower, huge blocks of lava quickly descend into the deeper sandy ground. The lava blocks lie on top of each other like dominoes.

At 2m deep, the reef changes into a steep wall, which ends between 20 and 32 meters in a cooled lava flow. From there, lava fingers go out into the falling sandy bottom. In the northeastern part, rock needles stand in front of the reef wall and form gorges. A little deeper there are breakthroughs and caves.

In front of the reef edge at 12m, large rocks come up from a depth of 35m and form rugged canyons. Gradually over boulders, it goes deeper up to 40+m. In the northern part, a chimney goes from 34m to 24m, at the bottom of which is one of the numerous orange tree corals.

From this anchorage you can dive 3 different dive sites. An approx. 5m wide and 20m deep canyon runs parallel to the reef edge. East of it bizarre rock formations pile up, where the fish can hide from the bigger predators. The white sandy ground gives a good contrast.

Before the actual reef lies on 32 m depth a big rock wall which goes up to 18 m high. In the middle area there is a diveable breakthrough. After the portal it goes then briskly into the deeper zones where large groupers wait.

Sharing the same buoy as El Tazar, Tesoro Negro is known for it’s small overhang/cave where it is common to find sand tiger shark teeth laying on the sandy bottom as well as the pinnacles of rocks followed afterwards.

The furthest dive site from the coast. Huge rock formations form gorges, drop-offs, and openings. There are hundreds of opportunities to dive this site. The black fissured lava formations stand out against the white sandy bottom.

Tightly spaced rocks, openings, and niches dominate this dive site. The peace and quiet and the play of light seem like a monastery. Towards the south, the site slopes down over sandy areas into the depths.

A volcanic rock and sand bottom, this site located in the center east of the island in this dive spot we can to dive between rocky towers and walls and enjoy various species of fish.
