About El Foro
El Foro is a Barcelona-area boat dive on a deep rocky bar, best suited to experienced divers with deep or technical training. The route is about structure and discipline rather than a casual shoreline visit: plan the dive around the boat schedule, use a conservative gas plan, and expect the main interest to sit on hard rock and in the cracks where the macro life gathers. Calmer sea windows make the dive easier, while winter wind can make the region less predictable.
