Gorgònies de LLevant

Located east of the Formigues Islands in Spain, this dive site offers a deep and technically challenging experience for advanced divers. The underwater landscape is teeming with a diverse array of flora and fauna, creating a vibrant and picturesque dive.

During your dive, you will have the opportunity to encounter various marine species, including large groupers and the typical fauna of the area.

To start your dive, descend down the cape until you reach a depth of 25 meters. From there, you can choose to explore the open sea in a specific direction, where you will come across small headlands that serve as habitats for the impressive groupers and rock-dwelling fauna. Alternatively, you can head east around the base of the mountain, enjoying the breathtaking walls of gorgonians until you reach a depth of 43 meters. This entire area is brimming with life due to its relatively inaccessible depth.

For a different experience, you also have the option to explore the nearby Formigues Islands, visible from the boat. With a maximum depth of 33 meters and a visibility of 11 meters, this dive site promises an unforgettable adventure for experienced divers seeking excitement and natural beauty.
