Boat-accessed outer reef near Tamariu with gorgonian walls and rock structure.
Furio de Aigua Xelida Outside is a short-boat outer-reef dive off Tamariu with steep walls, rock ledges, and thick gorgonian cover. The route is mostly a scenic wall-and-crevice tour, with hiding places for moray eels, lobsters, and other macro life, plus the occasional larger fish. A light helps in the small passages, and the site is best when the outer reef is calm enough to keep the wall easy to read.
