Rabbate
The itinerary of the neophyte naturalists
The Rabbate dive begins off the coast at about 10 m from the shore, at a depth of 7 m. The wall is exposed to the northwest, and we follow it on the right hand side, heading eastward. Large boulders lie in the sand on the side of the open sea. The vertical wall of the ridge gradually becomes more curved, with a number of small caves and a seabed of coarse sand. A series of channels similar to “canyons” later appears, interlinked by small tunnels. A 3 m wall with rock formations and a number of small splits stands opposite to the north. The wall then gradually slopes and descends, and you will find yourself on a plateau at a depth of 8 m, with ravines on the left hand side that are home to various fish species.

CALA TRAMONTANA – THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL ITINERARY
Punic, Greco-Italic and Imperial Roman amphorae
The beginning of the itinerary, which is marked by a buoy, can be reached by land from the Cala Tramontana pier, or else by sea by mooring your boat to the appropriate float. The itinerary begins at a depth of about 8 m, on a seabed covered with sea grass that slopes down to a sandy plateau.

CALA GADIR (archaeological itinerary)
Underwater archaeology for all skill levels
Cala Gadir offers itineraries that are suitable for divers with open water licenses, as well as more advanced divers. The dive begins near the first slipway, which reaches a depth of 6 m at the entrance corridor marked by yellow and white buoys. Heading about 20 m to the north, you will come to a rocky ridge.
