About this dive site

This dive site, El Triangle, is a notable section within the larger Barra del Negre area, offering a rich underwater experience. Navigating this site typically involves following the natural contours of the rocky reef. There is no specific historical account provided for El Triangle itself, but it is recognized as part of the Maresme Special Conservation Area.

Divers can expect an 'explosion' of both small and large marine life, characteristic of the Mediterranean Sea. Nudibranchs are particularly abundant here, making it a prime spot for macro enthusiasts. Beyond these colorful molluscs, the site hosts typical Mediterranean fish species, crustaceans, and various invertebrates.

The best time to visit El Triangle generally aligns with the warmer months in the Mediterranean, from late spring to early autumn, when water temperatures are more comfortable and marine life is active. This site is highly suitable for both scuba divers of all levels and freedivers, thanks to its manageable depths. Its focus on macro life makes it an excellent location for underwater photography.
