About This Dive Spot
Cantarell is a notable wall dive characterized by steep drop-offs. During the migration season of eagle rays, typically from mid-January to early March, divers may encounter these species in groups. The site is best approached as a drift dive, with divers entering the water simultaneously and exiting together. Strong currents can be present, which may push divers outward or downward along the wall.
