Why dive here
With 189+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, mobula rays (devil rays), ocean sunfish (mola mola), octopuses and sea turtles - Los Arcos offers some of Cabo de Palos's richest diving. Water ranges 15-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Los Arcos, near Cabo de Palos, offers a relaxed dive through a series of rock arches and swim-throughs. Sunlight filters in, illuminating groupers, moray eels, and the occasional barracuda lurking in the shadows. It’s a gentle exploration, well-suited for divers looking for interesting topography without strong currents. We think it’s a good option for a second dive of the day.
