To our newest PADI Open Water Diver and PADI Advanced Open Water Diver. We had some amazing dives off the beach at Amadores and also off the boat, on the wrecks of Mogan and more local sites! Thanks Camilla on a great two weeks of diving. See you again soon!

As we see so many Angel Sharks whilst we dive in the Atlantic Ocean, around the coastline of Gran Canaria, here are a few facts about the amazing creatures we see. The Angelsharks are flat-bodied sharks, very ray-like. They bury themselves in the sand or mud with only the eyes and part of the top of the body exposed. They have a blunt snout and are camouflaged to blend into the sand and rocks of the ocean bed. They have long, wide fins that look like wings, giving it its name. It is also known as the monk shark, sand devil, and monkfish. Angelsharks are frequently caught for food.

Blue Water Diving would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year!‍ Thanks for all of our friends, family, new divers, old divers and soon to be divers for the support over the last year. Hope to see you all again soon for more diving in Gran Canaria!
