Dive-site story
Located along the rugged Montgrí coastline near l'Estartit, Pota del Llop features a steep limestone drop-off descending onto a mixed seabed of boulders, sand, and Posidonia seagrass meadows. Diver exploration centers on navigating the vertical wall face, examining dark fissures, and checking isolated stone blocks where marine life congregates away from coastal boat traffic.
Limestone wall pierced with fissures, small cavities, and undercuts
Dense clusters of red and yellow gorgonian fans at deeper sections
Sheltered Posidonia oceanica beds holding juvenile fish and mollusks
