Punta Garbi is a boat-accessed wall dive on the south-west side of Benidorm Island, following rocky ledges, holes, and sandy patches. The route is easy to follow and suits newer scuba divers when the sea is calm, but current and nearby boat traffic can change the feel quickly. Marine life is lively, with morays, octopus, barracuda, and other Mediterranean fish making regular appearances.
