Cala Nova Outside is a short boat dive from the Tamariu area with sheltered canyon and wall terrain, dense gorgonian growth, and a mix of shoaling fish and larger species. The site feels more like an unspoiled rocky seascape than a busy reef, and it rewards a torch, tidy buoyancy, and a steady pace through the crevices.
