Features

Upon arriving at the dive site, the rock formation above the entry resembles the face of an old man, watching over the underwater treasures.

 

Framed by several rock ledges and balconies, the mighty steep wall extends down to 65 m.

 

This site creates a truly impressive landscape. Filled with sponges of all colors, corals, and gorgonians that grow up to a depth of 20 m.

Additionally, you can observe bonitos, amberjacks, forkbeards, and sometimes even morays.

 

Particularly noteworthy is a small cave at a depth of 10 m, as well as a sea grotto that can easily be dived simultaneously by a buddy team at 35 m.

 

The often strong currents around the spot invite for drift diving - but require a good amount of diving experience.
