A unique color of the sea on the Costa Brava
The Mediterranean Sea exhibits a beautiful deep blue color that is home to more than 10,000 aquatic species. As its waters come from the Atlantic, biodiversity is almost exclusively composed of species that belong to that ocean. The Mediterranean is one of the seas with the most marine diversity on the planet. Many of its species are unique to this sea.
In your dives in the Costa Brava, a small piece of its Mediterranean coast, approximately 250 km long, you will not find coral reefs, they could not exist with the temperature difference between summer and winter. The background continues to be very attractive, due to the structure of the rocks and the coarse-grained sand that creates spectacular underwater landscapes.
The beaches of the Costa Brava are called CALAS and are ideal for shore diving.
