El Portet combines simple shore access with a shallow sand-and-seagrass bottom, so it fits easy snorkeling and gentle first-timer scuba when the beach is quieter.
About El Portet
El Portet is a sheltered shell-shaped cove in Moraira with easy beach access, clear water, and a shallow bottom that stays friendly for relaxed snorkeling and beginner scuba. The route is mostly a short shore entry over sand, boulders, and seagrass patches, so the main planning tradeoff is convenience versus summer beach traffic, parking pressure, and keeping clear of swimmers and the fragile bottom.
