Roca de Santa Anna
Deep boat dive on a pyramid rock with big marine life.
Local operator required
Best handled through a local dive operator for boat logistics and site briefing.
Use a local boat operator, a torch, and careful gas planning; this is an advanced rock dive with big-life encounters rather than a casual sightseeing run.
About Roca de Santa Anna
Roca de Santa Anna is a boat-accessed rocky-bottom dive off Tossa de Mar, built around a pyramid-shaped rock and best suited to experienced divers. A torch is useful for checking the holes and ledges, and the site is known for big Mediterranean life, so the best plan is a controlled deep boat dive with careful gas management and a slow look into the structure.
