Diving with dolphins, Tenerife forever:)

Well, as many of you know, I have been to Tenerife, I have often been there, my "bautismo" was there and I have enjoyed Tenerife and the diving places ever since.

But this time was special. Not only did we have a looooot of current, which I found extremely funny and challenging, but......

The diving master, como tengo "enchufe"raspberry, went with me to a "forbidden" spot, where you actually dive with dolphins, wild dolphins, not a kind of aquarium.

Estoy muy emocionada, unos sitios de los que he visto son "Punta blanca"...."Robert reef", muuuucha corriente, solo para expertos, pero muy divertido

This is not the best of videos, but anyway, and note....we actually saw 7 dolphins, and three enormous sting rays "chuchos negros" never left us!

Para qué os voy a contar...wink

I am so glad that you enjoyed your vacation Heidi! Of course you were greatly missed! The video and pictures are spectacular.

That is what I love about this site. Not only do we learn Spanish and many other interesting things, but we also learn of new and exciting places to travel.

Isla de la Eterna Primavera (Tenerife) will definitely be on my "bucket list" (lista de cubo?tongue rolleye) of places to visit! wink

You are so lucky, enjoy it while you may , there is no more wonderful feeling than sharing that space with a wild thing and feeling "sympatico" it is magic. I spent many years as a young man diving on the reefs in the Islands of the Pacific , it calms one down and makes one realise there is a 'oneness' with all creatures. Thank you.

This is why I love diving! A good dive is like an hour-long meditation on the beauty of God's creation. How wonderful to encounter wild dolphins. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.

Yesero, water is always cold in Tenerife, for me - melipiru

big surprise

Don't pay any attention to her, yesero, the water is around 19 C degrees, not exactly warm....jeje, but I've got a semi-dry suit, makes all the differencewink

Temperature in Tenerife is around 23 or 25 degrees all year long, we had a walk in shorts and a t-short on Saturday night...and came home to freeeezing four degrees in Madrid on Sunday!! confused

Tenerife! It never stops amazing me. I have been there over 15 times to see family and friends but I also find something new to see in my homeland. The development of the island is extraordinary!
