About this dive site
This dive site offers a varied underwater experience. The seabed consists of rocky terrain, ranging in depth from 4 meters to a maximum of 18 meters. It’s considered suitable for divers of all skill levels – both beginners and experienced divers can enjoy exploring this location. You'll find patchy seaweed growth and abundant fish life, with pelagic species appearing during the summer months. Notably, visibility is excellent due to the absence of sediment or sand on the bottom. The site experiences protection from northwest and southwest winds, but is exposed to southerly wind and swell.
