Gran Canaria Dive Sites - El Arona

Dive sites > North Gran Canaria > El Arona

The Arona shipwreck is about 20 minutes south of Las Palmas. In good conditions, it’s a dazzling sight, mainly intact and surrounded by large shoals of barracudas, sardines, damselfish and grunt-fish. You will find most likely white trevallies, angel sharks or rays scouting the perimeter. There are even a few red gorgonians growing in the superstructure as well as giant anemones in the hazy corners.
