Why dive here
With 44+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and sea turtles - Punta Salines offers some of Costa Brava's richest diving. Water ranges 13-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Punta Salines offers a straightforward dive, accessible from the shore. You’ll find typical Mediterranean rocky reefs here, good for spotting octopus, moray eels, and smaller schooling fish. It’s a solid choice for a casual afternoon dive, particularly for those looking for an easy entry and exit. We’d suggest it for divers who appreciate relaxed exploration over dramatic topography.
