About Escollera del Puerto

Escollera del Puerto is a shallow Puerto de Mazarrón cleanup dive where currents trap debris against the breakwater, so teams work the bottom rather than follow a scenic reef route. The site is beginner-friendly, but it is better treated as an organized utility dive than a casual holiday plunge. Small organisms and sheltering life use the debris and the rock edge as habitat.
