Full description
If your idea of "seeing fish" is to stop by the frozen food section of the supermarket, we have a much better plan for you. ..
Immerse yourself in the fascinating underwater world of the Costa de la Luz and discover octopus, rays and orange corals on a guided snorkelling tour of 1 hour and 30 minutes. This is the perfect activity to enjoy with family or friends and get to know Tarifa from the inside.
What we will do
We will meet at the agreed time at the meeting point in Tarifa. Once there, we will meet our instructor, who will give us all the equipment: mask, snorkel, fins and neoprene (if we are cold) . Before we dive, we will dedicate some time to a theory class where we will learn how to fin correctly, how to move with agility and how to empty the water out of the snorkel in a simple way.
Once we are ready, we will start our route from the beach. For about 45 minutes our guide specialised in fauna identification will point out the wonders that inhabit this ecosystem, from cuttlefish and octopus to moray eels and orange-coloured corals. It will be like walking through a natural aquarium while our monitor supervises every movement from the surface.
We will have the opportunity to observe fascinating species such as snapper, bream, spider fish and even some spider crab hidden among the rocks. You don't need to be an expert swimmer to enjoy the spectacle; the key is to relax and take advantage of the moment to disconnect from the outside noise and connect with the rhythm of the sea.
At the end of the dive, we will return to dry land to take off our equipment and share the best anecdotes of the day. In total, we will experience 1 hour and 30 minutes of pure marine adventure before saying goodbye.
