Roncadores del Faro is a Tenerife wall dive with swim-throughs.
Roncadores del Faro is a Tenerife wall dive with swim-throughs.
Roncadores del Faro is a Tenerife boat dive built around a steep volcanic wall, shallow anchoring, and short swim-throughs that make the route feel compact but varied. It is a good fit for certified divers who want a structured Atlantic wall dive rather than a long swim or a loose reef search. The site rewards relaxed buoyancy, a little depth comfort, and a plan that respects the day’s current and visibility. On calmer days, the rock shape and fish life make it an easy site to explore more than once.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.

4m - 40m
Depth Note
A shallow anchoring point leads quickly into an almost vertical volcanic wall with caves and tunnels, and the route can run deep depending on the line chosen.
Best Season
Year-round, with the warmest and most forgiving conditions in late spring through autumn.
Typical Conditions
Mild current, strong visibility on good days, and a volcanic wall profile with swim-throughs and a small crater.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Keep buoyancy tight on the wall, watch your gas if you follow the deeper line, and leave extra margin if the sea state softens visibility.
Access Restrictions
License-only boat dive with a shallow anchoring area and a deeper wall beyond the reef edge.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A boat dive along a volcanic wall with swim-throughs, plateaus, and a small crater; good for controlled descent practice and route exploration.
Freediving
The shallow edge may work for brief freediving, but the full wall is better suited to scuba because the route drops quickly.
Snorkeling
The shallow reef edge can be snorkelled in calm conditions, but the main wall and marine life are best seen underwater.
