Punta Xarraca

★★★★☆ (115)

Very close to the Blue Holes, there is Punta Xarraca, the western end of the beautiful bay of Xarraca. On its walls we find a great variety of diving spots, from simple dives for beginners, to the deepest ones for the most experienced divers.

Groupers, moray eels, spotted codling and scorpion fishes are the more common fishes in the dive, but also, we can find numerous species of nudibranchs.
