Dive-site story
Situated along the rocky Montgrí coastline north of L'Estartit, Guix offers classic Mediterranean coastal diving over a seabed of tumbled granite boulders, rocky shelves, and posidonia seagrass meadows. Sheltered from southern swells, the site provides a gradual descent with numerous crevices sheltering typical Catalonian marine life.
Extensive boulder fields harboring octopus and moray eels
Rocky overhangs covered in yellow encrusting anemones and sponges
Posidonia seagrass patches functioning as nurseries for juvenile fish
