About this dive site

This dive site is accessible directly from the coast, utilizing convenient platforms for entry. Divers navigate by keeping the coast to their left, starting in a shallow sandy area that gradually deepens. The underwater route leads to an interesting cave formation before divers return along the same path. The site's clear navigation and gentle progression in depth make it suitable for divers of all experience levels.

The sandy bottom of Cala Morell is home to various fascinating small marine creatures, including great weever fish, cotton-spinner crabs, and starfish. As divers explore further, they can also encounter a vibrant array of fish species such as striped red mullets, white seabreams, two-banded seabreams, ornate wrasse, and rainbow wrasse, adding to the rich biodiversity of the Mediterranean.

The best time to visit this dive site is typically during the warmer months from May to October, when the water temperatures are most pleasant and visibility is generally excellent. Its shallow maximum depth and sheltered location make it an excellent spot for both scuba divers and freedivers looking to explore a coastal cave and enjoy abundant small marine life. The site is especially recommended for beginners and those seeking a relaxed dive.
