Punta Martin

About this dive site

This dive site, Punta Martin, located in Spain, offers a diverse underwater experience suitable for divers of all levels. The site features a relatively shallow maximum depth of 21 meters, with an average depth around 10 meters, making it accessible to both beginners and experienced divers. A small cave adds an element of exploration, while a shallower area at around 12 meters provides a pleasant and relaxing shallower dive for those who want to enjoy the marine life without going too deep.

The marine life at Punta Martin is abundant and varied. Divers can expect to encounter octopuses, moray eels, barracudas, dragon heads (likely referring to a type of fish, possibly seahorses), and bream, among other species. The variety of habitats including rocky sections and the cave creates a thriving ecosystem supporting a diverse range of fish and invertebrates.

The best time to visit Punta Martin is likely during the warmer months (May-October) when water temperatures are more comfortable and visibility is generally better. For freediving, the manageable depth and relatively calm conditions make this a suitable location for breath-hold dives. Divers should always check the weather forecast and sea conditions before entering the water, and dive with a buddy for safety. Always respect the marine environment and avoid disturbing the wildlife.
