    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Playa de Bahía is a shallow, sheltered bay in Cabo de Palos, perfect for beginners or a relaxed check-out dive. You’ll find sand and some rocky patches, where small octopuses sometimes hide. It’s mostly about getting comfortable in the water, maybe spotting a bream or a few damselfish. At just 7m, it’s a gentle introduction to the Mediterranean.
