About this site
El Moraig lies along the Costa Blanca coastline in the province of Alicante, near the town of Benitatxell in the Valencian Community. This stretch of coast is marked by limestone cliffs and small coves, with the Cova dels Arcs sea cave in the area a known feature of the local topography. The dive here reaches a maximum depth of around 15 metres and is rated advanced, reflecting the cave environment. Dive operators based around Moraira and Jávea run trips to sites along this rocky shoreline.
