About Playa de Bahía
Playa de Bahía is a sheltered beach-entry dive in Puerto de Mazarrón, used for beginner training and easy check-out dives. The seabed is mostly sand with scattered rocky patches around a small bay, so the route stays simple and easy to orient from shore. Typical sightings include damselfish, flatfish, starfish and octopus. It works best on calm days when you want a low-friction shore dive or snorkel loop.
