Sheltered shore bay in Costa Teguise that works well for beginners.
This is a house reef style site normally arranged through a local dive center, especially for guided entries and courses.
Playa Jablillo is a sheltered shore bay in Costa Teguise with a shallow inner basin and a stone wall that lets the site open toward the outside at higher tide. It is a classic beginner and family-friendly entry, with easy shore access, calm conditions, and enough structure for training, snorkelling, and relaxed photo dives. The outer wall adds a little more life and variety without turning the site into a demanding open-ocean dive.
