Laja de la Sal, off Morocco's Al Hoceima coast, offers a straightforward Mediterranean dive. We’ve found decent hard coral formations here, with groupers often lurking in the crevices. It’s a solid choice for a relaxing afternoon dive, particularly if you’re looking for a quieter spot away from the busier areas. Visibility can vary, but generally, it’s a pleasant dive for most experience levels.
