Illes Formigues
★★★★☆
(2,287)
A once-in-a-lifetime dive. This dive site sits in a small reserve formed by a group of islets in front of the Cap de Planes, between Palamós and Calella de Palafrugell.
It is easy to see moray eels, octopus, cuttlefish, sea hares, conger eels, and many varieties of rockfish and gorgonians here.
