Dive Magazine features Gran Canaria InDepth.




In October we played host to Simon Rogerson, editor of BSAC Dive magazine. This month his review on diving in Gran Canaria has been published, along with his stunning photos. His review of Diving in Gran Canaria covers all the four major dive areas of the island.


Here are a few of his 'bigshots', and you can find more in the photo gallery of our website at Diving in Gran Canaria with PADI 5* Centre, Davy Jones Diving or in the online magazine at www.divemagazine.co.uk

Angel sharks in Gran canaria


We recently got the first results from the survey that our scuba divers have been carrying out while diving in Gran Canaria in the Arinaga (or El Cabrón) marine Reserve.


You can read the full survey results produced by the University of Las Palmas here Gran Canaria - dive with angel sharks (squatina squatina)


In summary they accepted that we see Angel sharks all year round in Arinaga. If you look at the correlation between water temperature and sightings then you can see that we see more when the temperature drops below 21C in November, until it reaches 21C again in June.
