About Cap Gros
Cap Gros 2 is a varied wall-and-reef dive in the Cap de Creus area, with steep rock, overhangs, caverns, and tunnels that make the route feel exploratory rather than linear. A shallow sandy section keeps part of the site approachable, while the rocky sections add texture and interest for divers who enjoy route-finding and sheltered structure. It suits divers who want a mixed-profile dive with a little of everything instead of a single straight wall.
