Los Arcos - Isla Benidorm
★★★★☆
(4,663)
A beautiful dive off the northwest tip of Benidorm Island. The seabed is representative of the Serra Gelada Natural Park, with sandy areas, rockfalls, boulders, a wall, and even a long-lived, deep Posidonia seagrass meadow.
Endless schools of damselfish, saddled seabream, and occasionally barracuda, amberjack, or even a group of tuna in the blue water. Encounters with sunfish or eagle rays in the blue.
