Dive-site story
Situated directly off the northern beach in Tossa de Mar, this coastal site offers convenient shore access into a maze of granite boulders, rocky channels, and patches of Posidonia seagrass. Divers typically navigate through a shallow natural channel before reaching deeper granite formations and overhangs that step down toward the open sea. It is among the most popular and accessible training and leisure dive locations along the Costa Brava.
Protected rocky channel leading directly to expansive underwater granite structures
Dense macro life including diverse Mediterranean nudibranchs and well-camouflaged seahorses
Pockets of Posidonia meadows hiding octopus and cuttlefish
Easily navigated shoreline exit suitable for night dives
