Isleta del Moro is a good, easy dive for new divers in Cabo de Palos. It’s shallow, only ever reaching 13 metres, with conditions often calm. You’ll typically see small schools of damselfish and barracuda, and it’s a good spot to practice buoyancy in peace. We’d suggest it for training dives or an easy afternoon splash.
