About This Dive Spot

Cala del Bollo is a sheltered cove named after the historic tower above it. It is described as beginner-friendly and is commonly used for open-water training thanks to its shallow profile from the surface. The bay hosts resident schools of damselfish along with bream and mullet, while slightly farther offshore barracuda are often seen. The seabed is covered by a lush Posidonia seagrass meadow, and shallow-water sightings can include octopus, moray eels, and starfish.
