About this dive site

This dive site offers a fascinating underwater experience. The maximum depth is reached on the south face, with a notable rock wall base teeming with marine life. At the base of this wall, you’ll discover large stones hosting various invertebrates such as sea cicadas, scorpion fish, encrusting yellow anemones, Mediterranean madrepora, and sponges. The dive culminates on a gentle north slope, concluding on a rock platform at depths between 12 and 15 meters – making it an ideal location for both novice divers and those seeking a relaxed experience. You might encounter octopuses exploring their environment, as well as schools of Fredís (likely referring to frisbees or similar small fish), salpas, or even barracudas adding excitement to your dive.
