Cova dels Ofegats
★★★★☆
(90)
Dive spot close to the exit of the harbour of Mahón. We anchor under the Torre d’en Penjat, on a rocky platform. Under the cliff, we find the Cova dels Ofegats, a wide cavern with a beautiful backlight that has an air chamber on the surface where it’s possible to ascend.
Prawns and crabs can be seen inside the cave along with cardinalfishes. Outside, it is possible to see octopuses, moray eels and schools of damselfish.
