About this dive site

This dive site is located in the Marine Reserve of the Malgrats islands, at the tip of the largest island. The area offers a dramatic underwater landscape with a steep cliff face descending to 25 meters, followed by a foreland extending to 36 meters. This foreland features a pile of large boulders covered in bryozoan colonies—a habitat for numerous fish and invertebrates. Barracudas are frequently observed in these areas. A notable feature is the shallow platform situated on the northern tip of the island, accessible through cracks between the rocks. During spring and summer, slipper lobsters can often be found within these crevices at shallower depths. The dive offers a chance to explore diverse marine life and unique geological formations.
