Why dive here
With 148+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles, sperm whales and cuttlefish - El Toro offers some of Balearic Islands's richest wall diving. Water ranges 15-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
El Toro is a Balearic staple. We generally see schools of barracuda circling the pinnacle, sometimes tuna patrol the deeper sections, and the rock formations themselves provide plenty of nooks for moray eels. It’s a good spot for divers looking for a straightforward dive with consistent fish action, especially if you’re staying nearby. Expect depths around 20-30 meters.
