Expert cave dive in Pozo de la Luna, Menorca
Pozo de la Luna is an expert cave dive in the Cap d'en Font caves of Menorca, reached by a shallow approach swim from the rocky west-side access and a passage into the cave system. The route moves through a cavern, across a halocline and into a small air chamber, so the real challenge is the overhead environment rather than the swim distance. Clear water and the outside wall make the site appealing, but it is a serious cave route that rewards precise buoyancy, calm conditions and conservative planning.

Safety Notes
Treat the route as cave diving and stay within training limits. Keep the exit path under control through the halocline and do not push deeper into the cave if the water or visibility is not calm.
Access Restrictions
Rocky entry and overhead passages make this a route for trained cave divers only. Use the west-side access platform and expect a shallow approach swim before the cave entrance.
Legal Notes
Use normal cave-diving discipline and local access rules; this is a public-coast shore dive, not a casual swim site.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
The dive includes a shallow approach swim, cave penetration, and crossing a halocline to reach an air chamber.
Freediving
Not suitable for casual freediving because the route is an overhead cave environment with a halocline and a tight exit path.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel target. The shore access and rock platforms are for divers heading to the cave system, not for casual surface swimming.
