In the south of Tenerife, the Montaña Amarilla (Yellow Mountain) creates a moonlike landscape below the surface. The sandstone at the foot of the mountain has been shaped by the constant waves of the Atlantic Ocean, exposing interesting formations. Because the stone does not allow algae to flourish, the site appears barren and creates an illusion of floating in space above another strange planet. There are small fish, and sometimes other creatures, but the landscape itself is the highlight of this Canary Islands dive site.
