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 - Punta del Viento offers some of Cabo de Palos's richest diving. Water ranges 15-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Punta del Viento sits just off the Cabo de Palos lighthouse, an accessible spot often used for check dives or when conditions are a bit rougher elsewhere. The rocky reef provides shelter for moray eels and octopus, tucked away in crevices. It's a shallow dive, good for new divers or those looking for an easy, relaxing afternoon exploring the Mediterranean shallows. You'll find nudibranchs if you look closely.
