PECIO PUERTO PAJARES

The Puerto de Pajares or Barco de la Sal, a remarkable 50-meter long boat built in 1957, holds a special place in the world of diving. This historic vessel met its fate in 1978 when it collided with the underwater formation known as Cabezos, coming to rest on a sandy bottom on its port side. At a depth of 28 meters amidst the sandy soil, the boat showcases its full splendor.

Despite its relatively modest size, with a length of 50 meters and a width of 7 meters, the dive to explore this captivating wreck is best enjoyed with Nitrox. The complete preservation of the boat allows divers to witness the grandeur of its chimneys and the abundance of marine life that call it home. From majestic moray eels and conger eels to fascinating creatures like crabs and electric rays, the boat is teeming with an array of captivating marine species.

Located off the coast of La Vega, Tarifa, in the enchanting region of Campo de Gibraltar, Cádiz, Andalusia, Spain, this diving site offers a unique experience for advanced divers. With a maximum depth of 22 meters and visibility reaching up to 11 meters, this underwater adventure promises unforgettable moments for divers seeking to explore the rich maritime history of the area while immersing themselves in the beauty of Spain's coastal waters.
