El Meridian

Level: 3 / Max depth: 30 metres

This wreck was a WW2 German minesweeper and arrived in Tenerife in the 70's. It was later used as a Dolphin watching vessel before being scuttled in 2005 for the enjoyment of divers and now lies almost upright on a sandy bed at 30m.

We can encounter Jacks, Rays, Grouper and perhaps Angel shark as we make our way around the wreck and up to the Crow's Nest before making our safety stop.

An advanced dive for its depth and some strong currents.
