Located at the end of the road with a turning zone, the dive site at Marina and the small beach offers convenient and free parking. There is also an outhouse and a picnic table for divers to utilize. While the dive may be somewhat more challenging for beginners, it provides an exciting underwater experience for divers of all skill levels.
At this dive site, divers can encounter a variety of marine life including crabs, lobsters, grey gurnard, flat fishes, and small codfishes. During the autumn and winter seasons, there is also a chance to spot octopus on the muddy bottom. The visibility at this location is approximately 7m, and the maximum depth reaches 26m.
For easy access to the water, it is recommended to park above the turning zone and unload the diving equipment before finding a parking spot. Divers can enter the water to the right, where the mountain wall meets the road. Alternatively, they can also use the small jetty with the jumping tower as an entry point. The diving direction is to the right.
The majority of the dive site's bottom consists of mud, but swimming further and following the bottom to the right reveals rocky patches that provide more hiding places for crabs, lobsters, codfishes, and flat fishes. A useful tip is to perform a surface swim of 150-200 meters before descending.
During the dark hours of autumn and winter, spending time on the muddy bottom of this dive site can lead to exciting encounters with octopus. Additionally, lucky divers might even spot rays here during the winter.
