About Mogan West
Mogán West is a shallow west-side Gran Canaria dive with rocky patches, sandy runout, and a relaxed profile that works well from shore or by short boat. The site sits just west of Puerto de Mogán, stays calm enough for beginner divers, and usually has minimal current. It is a good photo dive for angel sharks, morays, stingrays, and mixed schooling fish, with the route heading west along the coast.
