Under the impressive cliffs of the Ifach Rock Nature Park, to the slopes of Cap d'Or, you can access a submerged world of overwhelming life
and colour. You can find arches that serve as original openings out into the big blue. It is a place where soft contours meet gleaming sea beds, where sharp crags invite you to descend swaying weightlessly and where there are remains of shipwrecks from unknown times, full of life. The seascapes blend the colours of underwater nature and offer a spontaneous picture of the best and purest Mediterranean.
