About Cova De La Sal
Cova de la Sal is a sheltered boat-access sea cave and wall dive near Cala Montgó in the Costa Brava. The site mixes a shallow wall, a small rocky cove, and a posidonia meadow with plenty of life, so it works well for guided snorkel, scuba, and calm-day freediving rather than rough-water exploration. Plan around sea state and easy water access, because the cove itself is the main reason to stop here.
