About Punta des Murter
Punta des Murter is a boat-access dive in the northern Menorca marine reserve, known for a shallow platform, tunnels, and a small cavern with backlit rock. The site is a compact rock-and-fish dive where groupers, barracudas, moray eels, and other reef life move through the structure, and the reserve rules make a local operator the practical way in.
