Cuevas de Ses Caletes

The Caves of Ses Caletes, located near the Port de Ses Caletes in Spain, offer a dive experience that is not as well-known as the Cave of Light or the Hercules Columns. Situated close to the hamlet of Sant Vicent de la Cala, these caves are nestled in a small virgin cove.

During this dive, divers can explore several caves and rock arches, reaching a maximum depth of 25 meters. It's important to note that this dive site is suitable for beginners, making it an ideal spot for those who are just starting their diving journey. The visibility in the water is approximately 22 meters, providing divers with a clear view of their surroundings.

Inside the caverns, divers can expect to encounter a variety of marine life. Crabs and lobsters are commonly found within the caves, while groups of barracudas and solitary grouper can be seen swimming in the blue waters. Additionally, stingrays can often be spotted gliding over the sandy seabed.

The dive begins at a shallow depth, near the surface, where divers will enter the first and most impressive cave of the tour. From there, they will navigate through a short tunnel that leads to a partially roofless room, which is more than 8 meters deep and approximately 20 meters long. As divers continue their journey, they will come across two consecutive rock arches, one at 14 meters deep and the other at 23 meters deep. On the return trip, divers will bypass the caves and head towards the last cave of the tour, situated on the eastern side of the small bay where the ship is anchored.

With its intriguing underwater landscape and abundance of marine life, the Caves of Ses Caletes provide divers with a captivating and rewarding diving experience. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced diver, this dive site offers a unique opportunity to explore the beauty of the underwater world.
