Sa Calleta - Costa Brava

Sa Calleta in Costa Brava offers a straightforward Mediterranean dive. We usually find rocky slopes here, gentle enough for newer divers to feel comfortable. Look for octopus tucked into crevices and small schools of damselfish darting between the rocks. It’s a good spot for an easy afternoon dive when you want something relaxed.
