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 - Merolandia offers some of Cabo de Palos's richest reef diving. Water ranges 15-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Merolandia sits at 24m, an intermediate dive within Cabo de Palos. It’s a good spot for exploring sandy patches and scattered rock formations, often revealing octopus and conger eels tucked away. The site generally has gentle currents, making it a relaxed dive suitable for those looking for a calm exploration rather than dramatic topography. We find it’s a decent option for a second dive of the day.
