Cala’n Blanes
This dive site is perfect for night dives and is particularly suitable for inexperienced divers. With a maximum depth of 14 meters and a visibility of 15 meters, it offers a captivating underwater experience. Explore multiple caves and discover motorcycles encrusted with marine life on the sandy bottom, adorned with Posidonia seagrass.
The marine life at this site is diverse and vibrant. Encounter marbled electric rays, white seabreams, two-banded seabreams, ornate wrasses, rainbow wrasses, and damselfish during your dive. Keep an eye out for majestic moray eels and the elusive octopus among the rocks.
Located to the east of Ciudadela's municipality in Spain, Cala'n Blanes boasts a picturesque sea inlet. Its small dimensions, rocky and steep coastline, and vegetation-covered low cliffs add to its charm. Begin your dive from the palm-fringed beach, gradually descending or choosing a side based on your experience level.
To start your diving adventure, head south and follow the veril on the right, leading you to a pair of captivating caves. After exploring this underwater wonder, cross the inlet to the other side, where you'll encounter a couple of motorcycles adorned with seaweed. These motorcycles likely fell or were discarded from the old road to Cala'n Blanes long ago. Commence your return dive in a reciprocal direction from this point.
During your dive, you may also spot golden anemones among the rocks at the cove's entrance, adding to the enchantment of the underwater landscape. The ocean grass covers a significant portion of the seabed, where combers, painted combers, and salemas can be observed. Additionally, on the sandy bottom, keep an eye out for wide-eyed flounders, greater weevers, sea cucumbers, and on the sides of the inlet, sea black urchins, ball-alga, and various algae species.
