Advanced Palamós wreck dive on the Costa Brava.
Boreas is a deliberately sunk wreck off Palamós on the Costa Brava, explored as a boat dive over open water and into enclosed sections of the hull for trained scuba divers. The wreck offers a clear route along the bow and deck, then through the hold and engine-room spaces, with steady fish life and conservative planning needed for the depth and overhead sections.
