El Dies is a shallow rocky-and-Posidonia boat dive off Aguadulce, with rock rubble, sand, and seagrass creating a simple beginner profile rich in benthic life. It is reached by a short run from the Puerto Deportivo and rewards slow, easy swimming more than depth.

Keep your trim slow and steady over the rocks and Posidonia. The site is easy, but the boat run and low-relief terrain still reward clean buoyancy.
Access Restrictions

Legal Notes
Follow local marine-protection rules and the day-of guidance from the dive center.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A beginner-friendly scuba dive with low relief, a short boat ride, and plenty of small-life detail in the rocks and seagrass.
Freediving
A calm-day freedive is possible because the site is shallow, but it is primarily a beginner scuba reef.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling can work in calm water, but the site is better known as a shallow scuba route over rocks and Posidonia.
