Dive-site story
Located near the entrance to Port d'Addaia on the northeastern coast of Menorca, this site features a complex system of interconnected underwater caverns, swim-throughs, and rocky recesses. Sunlight pierces through overhead fissures to illuminate the cavern chambers, where sandy floors give way to limestone walls encrusted with sponges and bryozoans. Divers exit the darker recesses into open marine areas characterized by rocky reefs and posidonia seagrass meadows.
