About El Caseron
El Caseron is a boat-run sandstone ridge off Corralejo in Fuerteventura, set between the Lobos side and the dunes coast. The site is a long, narrow fossil rock feature over sand, so the route feels compact and readable while still holding groupers, rays, and the occasional angel shark. It works best on settled days as a focused marine-life dive rather than a rough-weather outing.

Keep the dive conservative if the sea is up; the ridge is easy to read, but swell can change the feel of the site quickly.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; rough wind and swell can make the site impractical or shorten the dive.

Check local boat and marine-park guidance before going out, especially when conditions are marginal.
