NATURE RESERVE OF THE STRAIT

The Natural Park is a well-known skin diving paradise. Departures are from Tarifa, the wildest zone of the Strait, where the Mediterranean Sea joins the Atlantic Ocean. It is a special place, famous for the richness and diversity of the flora and fauna and for the water clarity and visibility. A paradisiacal place that must be seen as well as protected and respected by everyone. It is the point where the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean join and because of the marine currents, temperature, etc. it is a perfect place for skin-diving and having unforgettable experiences. Tortoises, moonfish, red snappers and invertebrates (nudibranchia, starfish, sponges, etc.) have been found. There are several wrecks with year round inhabitants like conger and moray eels. We can enjoy splendid fauna and flora. We can see among others, the wreck of "San Andrés", whose destroyed steam wheel is a constant reminder of its presence. The remainders of the wreck are localized at depths between 24 and 35 meters.
