About this site
Cartgena Bay offers vibrant coral gardens teeming with reef fish, nudibranchs, and occasional turtles. Gentle slopes lead to dramatic drop-offs, perfect for drift dives. Visibility often exceeds 20 meters, with calm conditions ideal for beginners. The bay's sheltered location protects divers from strong currents, making it a reliable year-round spot. Expect encounters with schools of jacks and barracuda patrolling the blue.
