Easy shallow boat dive on Media Almud bay
Boat entry and the short shore-side approach are typically handled by a local dive center.
media almud shallow is an easy boat dive close to shore in the Media Almud bay, where the route follows the border between sand and rocky beach. The site stays shallow enough for relaxed exploring, with anemones, snappers, cleaning shrimps, and schools of small fish along the rock edge. Best on calm days when the shore-side water is settled.

Follow the sand-to-rock border rather than looking for a deep drop-off; this is a short, relaxed scenic dive.
Freediving
Possible on flat days close to the border zone, but this is primarily a boat dive.
Snorkeling
The shallow border zone can work for snorkelling in very calm water, though it is mainly set up for scuba.
