Punta Falconera
Punta Falconera is a boat-dived gorgonian wall in the Bay of Roses.
Boat access from Roses makes this a manageable deep-wall dive, with little current and a route that suits divers comfortable on deeper coast sites.
About Punta Falconera
Punta Falconera is a boat dive on the Cap de Creus side of the Bay of Roses, known for stepped walls and broad gorgonian cover. The site mixes reef ledges, small caves, and a sunken canyon, so it feels more varied than a single wall. It is best for divers who are comfortable on deeper coast dives, and it is most pleasant when the sea is calm and the boat can hold a clean line. Expect little current and a strong chance of seeing barracuda, tuna, groupers, moray eels, squid, and sunfish.
