Veril Grande
Volcanic wall dive off the Jandía lighthouse
Short boat hop from Morro Jable to a volcanic wall with caves, rays, morays, and regular reef life; best in calmer months.
About Veril Grande
Volcanic reef wall off the Jandía lighthouse in southern Fuerteventura, usually reached on a short boat run from Morro Jable. The site combines a shallow shelf, a vertical drop-off, and cave pockets, with reef fish, rays, morays, barracuda, and occasional larger visitors. It suits divers who want a straightforward transit but a more serious underwater profile, and the day’s plan can shift with wind and sea state.

Veril Grande Planning Details
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
15m - 40m
Depth Note
The wall is commonly described as starting around the shallow shelf before dropping quickly to the deep face; public descriptions place it in the 15-40 m band.
Best Season
Year-round, with the best visibility and calmer seas usually in summer and autumn.
Typical Conditions
Clear water, white sand, and a volcanic wall profile; the outer face is more exposed than the shallow shelf, and wind can change the plan.
Safety & Access At Veril Grande
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Safety Notes
Keep buoyancy tight on the wall and in cave pockets. Plan for a boat-dive setup rather than a casual shore swim.
Access Restrictions
Trade winds can affect boat dives, so guides may switch the day’s site. The main face is not a casual swim-out entry.
Legal Notes
Local operator guidance for Spain calls for a signalling buoy, dive computer, and knife; follow the guide’s daily entry and exit plan.
