Bajo de Piles II Marine Reserve - Cabo de Palos

Bajo de Piles II is a pretty chilled out spot, a good introduction to the reserve for newer divers. At 22 metres, it’s a comfortable depth, allowing plenty of bottom time to explore the rocky seabed. We’ve found groups of barracuda hanging around the deeper sections and often spot octopus tucked into the crevices. It’s a gentle drift on most days, making it ideal for those getting their sea legs in the Med.
