Dive-site story
Resting just outside Palma's main harbor near the western breakwater, this site features a cluster of four sunken cargo vessels scuttled in the late twentieth century. Over decades submerged on the sandy seabed, the steel hulls have transformed into established artificial reefs. Divers can explore exterior superstructures, cargo holds, and engine compartments where structural integrity allows, navigating between the wrecks across open sand patches.
