Dive-site story
Located within the Malgrats Islands Marine Reserve off southwestern Mallorca, Punta Malgrats offers a mix of rocky shelves, scattered boulders, and healthy seagrass beds. Long-standing local fishing restrictions have allowed resident fish populations to recover dramatically. Divers drop along the sloping bedrock toward sandy flats, inspecting undercut ledges and small cavities where Mediterranean predators rest.
Protected marine reserve status supporting high fish density
Rocky drop-offs with swim-throughs and overhangs
Dense Posidonia oceanica meadows hosting juvenile fish
