Dive Site Description |
|
Geronimo
|
Alcudia |
Easy |
23 m |
A spectacular dive site from an anchor site at the bottom of a large cliff dropping straight into the water from great heights to a depth of 23 m. We enter the cave at around 5 m and surface inside the mountain. Emerging inside the cave, you will find yourself in vast cavern with a vaulted ceiling, dotted with stalactites illuminated by the iridescent blue light from the outside world.
The pressure from the outside waves on the Cap de Formentor creates a magical mist inside the cavern and combined with the silent waters makes you feel in awe of the natural cathedral that is Geronimo's cave.

As the name implies, a dive filled with nooks, crannies and swim throughs, with octopus and moray eels to be found. The sunlight filtering through the rock makes an impression on all who dive here. As you exit look for the curtain of air bubbles rising to the surface. |
