Deep gorgonian wall dive on Cap Catalunya.
Boat access and the deeper wall line are best handled with the local Port de Pollença dive center.
Gorgonias Garden / El Eden de Gorgonias is a boat dive on the Cap Catalunya wall north of Mallorca, where gorgonian fans hang off the rock and the deeper line holds the main scenic band. It suits experienced divers who want a deliberate drop, solid buoyancy, and time on the wall rather than a casual shallow reef.
