Palm Mar Wall (Bufadero) is an intermediate wall dive off the coastal village of Palm-Mar in southern Tenerife, reaching 26 meters depth. The site features a volcanic cliff face that continues underwater as a dramatic wall, with its name 'bufadero' referring to the blowholes in the rocks above. The wall surface is decorated with sponges, cup corals, and small gorgonians, while its ledges and overhangs shelter groupers, moray eels, and dense schools of cardinal fish. Green sea turtles are frequently encountered along the wall's edge, and barracuda patrol in the open water. The wall profile and occasional currents make this a great progression dive for those advancing beyond beginner level.
