S'Algar Funnels: boat-first cavern dive with dramatic light.
S'Algar Funnels: boat-first cavern dive with dramatic light.
S'Algar Funnels is a boat-first cavern dive in Menorca's Isla del Aire reserve, with two connected caverns, a chimney, and a surface-opening upper grotto that makes the light feel dramatic. The dive works best for confident scuba divers who want an easy-to-read route, natural backlighting, and a short run from the S'Algar centre. A shore entry is possible, but the boat approach is usually simpler and more comfortable.

Site conditions, restrictions, and access requirements.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Treat the passages as an overhead-environment dive, keep buoyancy tight, and leave extra margin for route planning in the caverns.
Access Restrictions
Inside the Isla del Aire marine reserve; shore access is possible, but the dive centre's boat is usually the easier option.
Legal Notes
Follow marine-reserve rules and the access plan used by the local dive centre.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Two connected caverns with a chimney, a surface exit, and a lower chamber lit by a large arched opening around 20 m.
Freediving
Not a primary freedive target; the passage shape and depth profile suit scuba control better than breath-hold visits.
Snorkeling
Not a standard snorkel stop, though the upper grotto and surface opening are the bits most likely to interest surface swimmers.
