About this site
Swiss Cheese lies along the rocky coast of Menorca in the Balearic Islands, an area shaped by cave and cavern formations typical of the island's limestone coastline. The name reflects the site itself, a stretch of rock riddled with holes, swim-throughs, and perforated formations, reaching a maximum depth of around 24 metres. Divers have reported cuttlefish, lobster, octopus, and scorpionfish tucked into the crevices here. Dive operators based out of Menorca's coastal towns typically run boat trips to sites along this stretch of Mediterranean coast.
