Why dive here
With 44+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and sea turtles - GLORIA M RUCOMA OR GLORIA M DE RICOMA offers some of Costa Brava's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 13-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
The *Gloria M de Ricoma* is one of those Mediterranean wrecks we keep coming back to. She’s not deep, just sitting upright at 21 metres, which makes for some generous bottom time. Sunk back in ’69, she’s really become part of the reef. We love swimming through the holds, which are surprisingly open and make for easy penetration, even for newer wreck divers. Look for the resident conger eels tucked into shadowy corners and clouds of damselfish swarming above the decks. Our favourite detail has to be the intact steering mechanism – you can almost picture the captain. Visibility here can vary, but on a good day, you’ll get 15-20 metres, really letting you appreciate her size and how beautifully she’s settled into the seabed. She’s a fantastic dive if you’re looking for a relaxed wreck exploration that still feels like a proper adventure.
