Easy Gran Canaria boat reef with cracks and lots of life.
Boat access from the local dive center is the practical way in.
Media Almud is a shallow volcanic reef off southern Gran Canaria with a small concrete boat tucked into the rock, sand-and-rock borders, and lots of cracks that hold anemones, moray eels, snappers, parrotfish, and cleaning shrimps. The easy boat access and modest depth make it a friendly local dive for newer divers, but the reef still has enough texture and life to reward relaxed repeat visits.
