A shore dive from La Bombilla on La Palma, with volcanic cliffs, a short surface swim, and plenty of fish life.

About La Murga

La Murga is a shore-access cliff dive on La Palma near La Bombilla, with steep volcanic rock faces, a short surface swim, and a mix of close-to-rock and open-water routes. Divers come for the feeling of gliding through a volcanic landscape, with sponge-covered rock, strong visibility on better days, and marine life that includes barracuda, groupers, tuna, crab, and other island fish. It is a scenic coastal dive where buoyancy, the surface swim, and the local current matter more than raw depth.
