Boat dive on a porous rocky bar off Port Balis.
Boat dive on a porous rocky bar off Port Balis.
Boat dive on a porous rocky bar off Port Balis, with sand edges, cracks, and Posidonia patches that hold plenty of small Mediterranean life. A torch helps when working the rock, and the profile stays compact and easy to read. It is a boat-only site, so tidy buoyancy and a calm, unhurried pace matter more than chasing depth.
