Diving at La Catedral de Gran Canaria

Submarine cathedral Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

The La Catedral dive site has one of Gran Canaria’s most spectacular landscapes. Off the coast of the La Isleta peninsula just to the north of the capital city Las Palmas, is this enormous mass of twisted, almost Gothic, lava full of caves, arches, crevices and vertical dykes. The breathtaking structure is over 30 metres high.

Multiple route dive for underwater photography

The dive needs to be carefully planned with a route chosen in advance and the wave conditions and currents taken into account. Lights or strobes are recommended and photographers find plenty of caves and crevices to photograph. Advanced divers can descend t0 40 metres to get a monumental overview of the entire structure.
