Experience the Best Dive in the Balearic Islands at our Water Cave

Discover the awe-inspiring underwater world of our remarkable cave dive in the Balearic Islands, an experience you won't want to miss. Spanning over 200 meters in length, this cave offers divers the chance to marvel at breathtaking stalactites and stalagmites. Inside, you'll encounter a diverse range of marine life, including small prawns, greater hermit-crabs, cotton-spinners, meagre, black brittle-stars, and if you're lucky, even a European conger eel.

Immerse yourself in the captivating marine ecosystem as you explore the sandy marbled electric rays and encounter Mediterranean morays and other fascinating species amidst the rocky terrain.

The entrance to this magnificent cave is a cavity that opens up to the staggering cliffs of the north Ciutadella coast. The initial dive takes you to a depth of 12 meters at the cave entrance. As you progress, you'll encounter the first siphon, approximately 40 meters in length, leading to the mesmerizing sight of stalagmites and the experience of passing through a thermocline created by the intersection of two distinct bodies of water. The contrasting temperature causes a stunning frosted glass appearance in the water, heightening the visual spectacle. After reaching the second siphon, approximately 200 meters further, you'll surface into a spacious aerial chamber that marks the end of the cave. Here, you'll discover two small sandy beaches, offering a tranquil spot to soak in the surroundings. As you emerge, let the current gently guide you while you witness the indescribable beauty of the stalactites and stalagmites. Continue your journey through the "Column Room," where you can temporarily exit the water, remove your equipment, and explore the mesmerizing rock formations. After savoring this unique experience, make your way back towards the light, bidding farewell to the cave as you return to your boat.
