La Caleta: easy marina-side dive with shallow routes and seagrass.
La Caleta is the easy marina-side dive in Palamos, a short walk from Port Marina and a good fit for first dives or divers rebuilding confidence. The route stays shallow and simple, with rocky patches, posidonia, and a clear mix of sand and structure that makes the site easy to read. It works well as a low-stress shore dive and a useful warm-up before the more advanced local sites. Keep an eye on boat lanes and surface traffic, because the site sits right beside the port.
