About This Dive Spot

Located near Cala Ratjada, the dive site known as Farayo, or Großer Käse, features a prominent rock formation resembling Swiss cheese due to its numerous holes. This area is recognized for its marine life, including hunting barracudas and schools of sardines, often seen due to the mild currents present. The north plateau adjacent to the Cheese reaches depths of up to 28 meters and is equally abundant in fish, although it lacks the characteristic holes and passages found in the Cheese itself.
