It is considered as one of the most famous diving spots and it is addressed to intermediate divers. What Cueva del Palm Mar offers to scuba diving enthusiasts are an incredible visibility (10-40 m / 32-131 ft), a mysterious cave and an unusual marine beauty including different lovely creatures. Your scuba diving experience starts at 16 m/52 ft depth, where you leave the anchor and follow a path that will lead you into the world of excitement. In the cave’s entrance, which is located at 30 m/98 ft depth, you will come across dark warrens filled with fangs bared and moray eels.

This cave remains a mystery, as no-one has achieved to find out how long the interior tunnel is and where it leads. Unfortunately, many divers have lost their lives in quest of this mystery. For this reason, there is a memorial cross outside the cave, which is admired by all divers.

So, if you classify yourself as a scuba diving enthusiast, Cueva de Palm Mar is worth a shot!
