Los Chuchos is the Spanish translation of "stingrays" and it is one of the most popular dive sites in Tenerife. A large number of rays and eagle rays gently taking food from the diver's hand. The place was highlighted in several press articles, both in the UK and internationally. Some divers say: “Why go to Cayman Islands, when you can have the same thrill on the threshold of Europe ".

As many as six different species of stingrays have been sighted in one dive and we are sometimes blessed with a visit from the rare and elusive Ray Bull. The nature of the terrain means, that large pelagic species and predators such as barracuda and tuna are also frequently sighted. Who knows, what could happen?!
