About this dive site

This dive site, La Bota, is a remarkable submarine peak located approximately one mile northwest of Es Vedrà. Rising dramatically from depths exceeding 50 meters to just a few centimeters below the water's surface, it presents a unique and intriguing underwater experience. The only indication of its presence is the swirling waves that ripple across its top. Situated far from the coast, this location offers an excellent opportunity to observe marine life migrating through the open ocean. You might encounter tuna, amberjack, or schools of barracuda – the latter frequently seen in abundance. This dive site provides a chance to witness the dynamic interactions within the marine environment.
