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.
