    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Isla Mitjana sits off the Cabo de Palos coast, offering a straightforward Mediterranean dive. You'll find rocky reefs here, popular with local divers for spotting octopuses and moray eels tucked into crevices. It's a solid choice for a relaxing afternoon dive, particularly suiting those looking for a relatively calm introduction to the area's underwater landscape. We find it's often combined with other nearby sites.
