About this dive site

This dive site is located on the south face of the Peñón de Ifach, a prominent rock formation off the coast. The area offers abundant marine life and presents a gradual descent suitable for divers of all skill levels. The dive begins in shallow waters and progresses towards deeper areas, providing opportunities to explore diverse underwater formations. You'll find a rich ecosystem including schools of sprat and salps, along with intriguing creatures such as castanets, groupers, and bream. Closer to the seabed, the terrain becomes rocky, harboring a fascinating array of species – scorpionfish, an impressive variety of nudibranchs, octopuses, moray eels, and various hermit crabs. This gentle slope makes it a particularly enjoyable experience for beginners and experienced divers alike, allowing ample time for observation and exploration.
