About Porros Este
Porros Este is a boat dive on the east side of Porros Island in Menorca's reserve waters. A broad shallow platform falls away into a rocky drop, and an ascending tunnel loops back toward the platform. The site suits divers who are comfortable with a guided boat drop and some flow along the edge, with groupers, octopus, morays and nudibranchs in the mix.
