About La Caleta
La Caleta is a Tenerife drift dive where a boat drops you near the harbour and the wall carries you past ledges, overhangs, and sandy bottom. The site is known for schools of fish, rays, and angel sharks, but the current and wave action can rise quickly, so it suits divers who are comfortable planning a drift and staying aware of the wall.
