About El Rossinyol
El Rossinyol is a buoy-line dive on the Montgrí coast with an easy route over sand and large rock formations. The site is more about steady navigation and close-in structure than long swims, with the rocks holding most of the action. Expect octopus, cuttlefish, crabs, and occasional seahorses in the cracks and ledges. Currents can build, so the best dives here stay organized and close to the planned line.
