Dive-site story
Located off the rugged Costa Brava headland, this site is defined by dramatic underwater corridors cutting through solid granite reef formations. Deep fissures slice the rock into parallel vertical walls cloaked in sea fans, opening out onto sandy channels frequented by coastal pelagics. Divers navigate through shadow-filled stone passages where natural light filters between the ridges before descending toward the base of the outer walls.
Parallel granite canyons featuring fissures, overhangs, and swim-throughs
Dense colonies of Mediterranean red gorgonian fans along the deeper vertical faces
Sheltered crevices holding large dusky groupers and morays
