About this dive site
This dive site is Cala Ferriol, located in Mallorca, Spain. It features a prominent pinnacle rising from the surface to a depth of 26 meters, although the typical dive rarely exceeds 22 meters. The pinnacle offers a variety of dive experiences, from shallow explorations around the base to deeper dives to the pinnacle's top. A cave is located within the pinnacle, offering opportunities for exploration, but divers should be aware of their buoyancy control and navigation. The dive site doesn't seem to have a rich historical background related to wrecks or specific events.
Marine life is abundant here. Divers can expect to see octopus, moray eels, scorpionfish, nudibranchs, snappers, and various crustaceans. Red corals can be found at the base of the pinnacle. The cave within the pinnacle is home to crustaceans, nudibranchs, and scorpionfish. Macro photographers will appreciate the diversity of small creatures.
The best time to visit Cala Ferriol is during the warmer months, typically from May to October, when visibility is generally better and the water temperature is more pleasant. For freedivers, the calm waters and shallower areas around the base of the pinnacle provide excellent opportunities for breath-hold dives. Divers should be aware of their air consumption to account for exploring the cave. Always practice safe diving techniques and carry appropriate safety gear.
