Diving in Tenerife

For divers and non divers, this is one of the best places in Spain: Tenerifegrin

I am a fan and go to Tenerife twice a year, at least I try. We normally dive in Los Gigantes (amazing views!!) and these pictures were taken there.

I was lucky to be in very good company this time, lots of great photographers so I can offer you some real goodieswink

I even have a short video, very short but very nice, you will be amazed by the amount of fish, they are roncadores, very abundant in the area. I am in the background ...you can hardly see me due to all that life , as divers call it, hubo mucha vidawink

Diving in Los Gigantes, Punta Blanca

Number two

These are my two favourite shots grin This one is in Punta Blanca.

This one is in Los Picachos, same place, Los Gigantes.

Fantastic photographs! I'm a real wimp - the only fish I like to get close to are the ones on my plate grin

Había un tipo. Creo que fuera El Discovery Channel. El hombre perdió un dedo a una anguila Morey. Les quitaron su dedo gordo del pie y lo pusieron donde se fue el dedo. Se puede usarlo pero ahora ya no puede hurgarse su nariz.

Nota: Si quieras buscar oro. ¡No alimentes a los peces!

There was this dude. The Discovery Channel I believe. The man lost a finger to a Morey eel. They removed his big toe and put it where his finger was. He can use it but can no longer pick his nose.

Note: If you want to dig for gold. Don't feed the fish!
