About Los Champiñones
Los Champiñones is a boat-access Tenerife dive built around mushroom-shaped lava towers, narrow canyons, and swim-throughs. The route suits confident scuba divers who are comfortable reading current, moving through rock features, and slowing down to work the ledges and overhangs for morays, barracuda, triggerfish, and other reef life.

Safety Notes
