Dive-site story
Located directly off the sheltered cove in Calella de Palafrugell, Port Pelegri serves as a classic Costa Brava shore dive. The route follows a gentle descent over sand patches, interspersed with rocky fingers and vibrant Posidonia seagrass beds. Given its easy beach access and calm conditions, it is widely utilized for check dives, courses, and night explorations.
Gradual rocky reef fingers sheltering juvenile fish and octopuses
Expansive Posidonia oceanica meadows hosting small invertebrates and seahorses
Straightforward beach entry protected from predominant offshore swells
Excellent local site for night diving and macro photography
