About this dive site

This dive site, known locally as Punta Mares, marks the western boundary of Portinatx bay in Ibiza, Spain. Divers can explore impressive vertical walls that descend to a maximum of 26 meters (though the walls extend deeper), where successive rock barriers create a rich habitat. The underwater topography offers varied navigation through its structures, making for an engaging dive.

The site is teeming with diverse marine life, including impressive pelagic species like the greater amberjack and albacore. Resident fish populations are also prominent, featuring golden groupers, dusky groupers, and spotted codlings, all thriving within the rocky ecosystem and along the vertical drop-offs.

While specific seasonal highlights aren't detailed, the Mediterranean generally offers good diving conditions from late spring to early autumn. Divers and freedivers can enjoy the vibrant marine life and dramatic walls. Good buoyancy control is recommended due to the vertical nature of the site and the varied depth encountered during the dive.
