About El Dorado
El Dorado is a deep boat dive off Barcelona on a rocky bar for advanced and technical divers. Expect controlled descents, careful buoyancy and a slow search of the rock rather than easy sightseeing. The site is best known for moray eels, conger eels, lobsters and dense nudibranch macro life in clear Mediterranean water.
