About this dive site
This dive site is famous for its spectacular 80-meter-long tunnel that starts in a shallow inland sea pool and opens out into the deep blue. The play of light within the cavern is breathtaking, leading to a reef and drop-off rich with typical Mediterranean marine life. Divers can explore the tunnel and then continue along the vertical wall outside.
