Naranjito - Cabo de Palos

The Naranjito wreck lies in about 27 meters, a relatively shallow dive for a freighter that went down in the 1940s. Visibility can be excellent here, making it easy to appreciate the general shape of the ship and the schools of barracuda that often hang above the decks. It's a good spot for advanced open water divers looking for a straightforward wreck dive without extreme depths or currents. We’ve found it less impactful than some of the deeper wrecks in the area, but still a solid dive.
