Dive Spot Guide•
El Veril
El Veril is a shallow La Bombilla lava dive with macro-filled crevices.
Enter from the La Bombilla area, keep the route shallow and near the rock, and use the crevice as the main feature rather than covering distance.
About El Veril
El Veril is the shallow La Bombilla lava route on La Palma, built around easy shore access and close-up macro hunting. It threads through volcanic forms and a narrow crevice packed with life, so the best dive is a slow, near-rock search rather than a long swim. The site works well for all-levels scuba and for photographers who want structure, color, and a simple plan.
