About this dive site

This dive site, Playa del Mojón, offers a versatile diving experience with options for entry from either a boat or directly from the shore. The underwater landscape is a mosaic of rocky formations, lush Posidonia seagrass beds, and expansive sandy patches. Navigation is straightforward, following the natural contours of these diverse habitats, making it an excellent spot for relaxed exploration.

The site is home to interesting macro life, particularly notable for small octopuses that can be observed among the rocks at night. Cuttlefish are also present, especially in the rocky areas. At certain times of the year, divers may encounter jellyfish, adding to the varied marine fauna. The Posidonia beds serve as vital nurseries and habitats for numerous smaller fish and invertebrates.

The best time to visit for unique encounters with octopuses is during night dives. For jellyfish sightings, check local seasonal information. Its shallow depth and varied environment make it highly suitable for both scuba divers, especially beginners, and freedivers seeking an accessible and engaging spot for underwater exploration.
