Michel C
Why dive here
With 77+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola), octopuses and sea turtles - Michel C offers some of Medes Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 14-24°C, warmest July, August, September.
Michel C, off the Medes Islands, is one of those Mediterranean dives that just feels right for a relaxed afternoon. You’ll spend most of your time around depths comfortable for most recreational divers, gently finning past walls carpeted in gorgonians. It’s a site where we often spot sizeable groupers patrolling the rocky ledges, and sometimes a curious sunfish drifts by in the blue. Keep an eye out for nudibranchs tucked into crevices; they’re often surprisingly colourful here. It’s not about huge pelagics, but rather a comforting, dependable dive for enjoying the quieter side of the Medes.
