El Rei del Mar was created in 1990. The Diving Center is located in the village of L’Estartit, in the Costa Brava. Just a kilometer away there is the Natural Park of the Medes Islands, the Montgrí Coast and Baix Ter. The Medes Island Marine Reserve it’s formed by a group of islands located just in front of the village. The reserve is characterised by its bustling quantity of marine life, mainly by the large groupers which can be found at shallow depths.These great animals approach divers fearlessly with curiosity, wreathed in clouds of breams, with eagle rays scampering about the bottom amid small schools of barracudas. Divers will awe at underwater caves and sea walls teeming with gorgonians. These conditions, unequalled in all the Western Mediterranean, makes the Montgrí’s coast and the Medes Islands one of the best places for any diver.
