La Mola Nord
Beginner-friendly Mahon sandbank and rocky reef.
North of Mahon, La Mola Nord blends shallow sand, posidonia, and rocky tunnels on a short boat run from the port.
About La Mola Nord
La Mola Nord is a short Mahon boat dive built around a shallow sandbank, rocky blocks, and posidonia. The route is easy to follow and works well for initiation dives, but the rockier section adds tunnels and holes that keep the terrain interesting. It feels relaxed in settled weather, with the shallow profile, fish shelter, and light boat access making it a good beginner-friendly option.

Local Intel For La Mola Nord
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Suitable for initiation activities, with a mix of sandy bottom, seagrass, and rocky features.
Freediving
The shallow sandbank can work for simple freediving in calm weather, but the tunnels and holes are better treated as scenery only.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is only practical in very calm conditions, and the shallow sandbank is the part most worth watching from the surface.
