Cala Cortina
★★★★☆
(2,190)
Cala Cortina, the only land-accessible cove north of Cartagena, offers shore or boat dives down to 12 m. Its calm waters and mixed sandy-rocky seabed make it ideal for baptisms, courses, night dives and underwater photography.
Sandy bottoms host flounders, seabream and torpedo rays, while starfish and bivalves cover the seabed. Abundant octopuses hide among rocks, and at dusk cuttlefish and crabs emerge
