Dive-site story
Located off the northern flank of the Medes Islands Marine Reserve, Pedra de Déu features a striking vertical drop that plunges towards rocky boulders and sandy flats. Long-standing marine protection has allowed territorial fish populations to flourish without fear of divers, creating close encounters with large resident species. Sea fans carpet the deeper walls, while smaller cracks shelter invertebrates and cryptic fish.
Steep wall formations covered in purple and yellow gorgonian sea fans
Frequent, exceptionally tame encounters with mature dusky groupers
Hidden crevices harboring moray eels, spiny lobsters, and nudibranchs
