About San Martin Sur
San Martin Sur is a boat-access wall dive off Jávea's Cabo San Martín. The route steps down a Mediterranean wall over stone corridors and sandy patches, with a shallow tunnel crossing option and a clear stone landmark that helps you find the return. Expect typical sea bass, bream, and other Mediterranean life, plus a relaxed guided profile that works best when the sea is calm.
