About this dive site

This dive site, La Reparada in Spain, offers a thrilling underwater experience starting with a boat drop-off directly onto a dramatic drop-off that begins at 27 meters. The initial descent follows this impressive wall, reaching depths up to 30 meters before ascending to shallower areas around 20 meters where large rocky scree provides intriguing exploration opportunities. The dive profile is planned to follow the drop-off then ascend to the rocky scree to provide a visually varied dive. There is no historical information provided about the dive site.

The rich biodiversity makes this site a highlight. Divers can expect to encounter a variety of marine life, including grouper, moray eels, lobsters, sunfish, flabelline nudibranchs, gorgonian sea fans, skates, and mullet, as well as cerianthus anemones. The diverse habitats across different depths support a wide range of species.

The best time to visit La Reparada is likely during the warmer months, from spring to autumn, when water temperatures are more comfortable and visibility is typically at its best. Divers should be aware of potential currents, especially along the drop-off, and good buoyancy control is essential. Due to the depth, this dive is not suitable for freediving.
