About La Catedral
La Catedral is an open-sea cave dive off Portinatx, centered on a cathedral-like vault reached by a short boat ride from the Moscarter lighthouse area. It is an advanced route that rewards careful buoyancy, torch use, and controlled movement inside the chamber. Shrimp line the walls, lobsters wait on the outside descent, and red coral is one of the site’s standout features.
