Leaving from our pier, 1.5 km away, around the lighthouse, you will find this small cove with calm waters and a maximum depth of 18 meters. Its structure combines rocky areas, reefs, and sandy areas, making it the ideal site for underwater photography and night diving.
In terms of marine life, it is a favorite spot for seahorses and stingrays associated with sandy bottoms, as well as flatfish, and sometimes bioluminescence is present.
