Description:
On the very tip of Cabo de Palos lies the rocky bays of Cala Fria, one of which faces N/E and two facing S/W. These are very interesting dive sites as they have some good rock formations and swimthroughs which are home to scorpion fish, octopus, small groupers and colourful wrasse. In the shallow confines of the bays lies fields of oceanic gorgonia which brings shoals of salema, sergeant fish, wrasse etc. The maximum depth of the bays is 18 metres where you can find large rocks full of corals and can occasionally see barracuda, green and brown wrasse in open waters.
