Tajao

DCIM100MEDIA

Located about 25km from our dive center, Tajao is an absolute ‘must’. The short drive by jeep or minibus takes us to a small beach from where we easily enter the shallow water. After about 20 meters there is a ledge where we drop down to about 6 meters. After a few minutes over a stony ground where we often meet parrot fish and octopuses, we encounter  a small steep wall where we go down to about 12 meters. The wall, which is made of natural stones but looks as if it were man-made, stretches along a snow-white sand floor.

Looking closely, one can see the eyes of octopuses and moray eels inhabiting the wall. The large Atlantic rays that regularly patrol along the wall are another great highlight.

We care about animal welfare in Tenerife
Join us!

Tenerife is our home — but sadly, countless dogs and cats are abandoned, injured, or left to fend for themselves every year. We cannot and will not ignore this.

At OceanTrek Diving School, we feel deeply connected to this island and its inhabitants — both people and animals.

That’s why we support LIFE4DOGS, a project driven by passion and compassion, working to create a rescue and rehabilitation center for dogs and cats — a place where help, healing, and hope come together.

We stand behind this initiative because it represents the same values we care about: compassion, responsibility and sustainability.

Join us — together we can make a real difference!
Whether through a donation or by sharing the project, every bit of help counts.

Together we can ensure that Tenerife is not only a paradise for people but also a safe and happy place for dogs and cats.
