Es Cargol

★★★★☆ (130)

On the south coast of Menorca, near Binibeca beach, we find the Escull de Es Cargol. A rock that offers a variety of life, tunnels, arches and holes of different shapes. The current will be decisive in deciding the level of the dive.

Dive spot full of life: schools of barracudas, schools of damnselfish, groupers, moray eels, nudis and many other species of fish and molluscs prowl the reef.
