 Atlantic Spotted Dolphins
Quite often seen on the surface and heard underwater but never seen while diving.
 Coastal fish & Reef Life
We can almost guarantee you'll see an octopus in all its grace and camouflage. We will catch them play with them and then let them go. Our shallow abundant microcosm is quite impressive for the Med.
 Moray eels
The sharp eyed diver can easily spot our morays as their black and yellow colours give them away.
 Pelagic fish
As one of our sites is close to a fish farm, we get various 'hunters' chasing prey. The most magnificent of them all is the tuna which in all honesty we rarely see, although they have come snooping around us.
 Stingrays
Seen quite often near our fish farm dive site. Largest ones we've seen about 1.70m from wing to wing.
