Puig De La Sardina is a boat dive on a rocky seamount off the Costa Brava, known for red and yellow gorgonians, pelagics, and advanced profiles.
About Puig De La Sardina
Puig De La Sardina is a rocky underwater seamount off the Costa Brava, with three rising points, red and yellow gorgonian walls, and open-water sections that attract barracuda and other pelagics. The profile drops steeply from a deep base, so it is best treated as an expert-level boat dive with careful buoyancy and a calm-weather window for the crossing.
