The Immersion
The canyons have an almost “hand” shape sculpted by sea currents, in which we walk along its contour between narrow corridors.
The walls are full of yellow gorgonians and cracks full of coral, endowing to the path of a colorful mantle, but we will also easily find groupers, breams, lobsters, Swiss vaquitas, castanets, red mullets, moray eels and barracudas
There are three bars of great beauty where we will surely leave happy with our immersion.
Thanks to its orography, orientation is easy since there are three bars joined together at the end, following their profile we will find the mooring line in the highest area of the immersion.
Located north of Palamós and with about 40 minutes of navigation, the Tamariu canyons is a magical and colorful dive.
