S’Algar Reef: easy boat dive with caves and reef fingers
Short boat access, strong operator support, and a cave-and-wall profile make this a straightforward Menorca dive with good visibility and easy logistics.
About S’Algar Reef
S’Algar Reef is a boat dive in Menorca’s Illa de l’Aire marine reserve, just off the S’Algar urbanisation. Three reef fingers rise from a shallow start before the wall opens into caves, arches, and overhangs. The short run, easy route, and steady Mediterranean fish life make it a straightforward scenic dive with plenty of structure.
