From the boat we’ll go towards the Cape of Sant Antoni and there, in the buoy located in the second cove, we shall anchor. We’ll find the typical bottom in this area in which great rocks alternate with bank clears. The fancy arrangement of these rocky formations allow several routes although we suggest you take course some 330º from the anchoring, recognising stones we shall discover where it will be easy to see octopus, corvine, serrano fish, sea lobsters... and countless back lightings and corridors amongst the rocks. We’ll reach a great stone with the shape of a mushroom, we’ll surround it and we shall continue course 240º, progressively losing depth as we get nearer the coast. We’ll see the remains of a boat and a great anchor with incrustations, and then we’ll advance towards the coast, course 220º until we reach the entrance of a cave where, at the end (some 30 m.) we’ll be able to reach the surface and we’ll have a view of the exterior and our boat, towards which we’ll return.
It is important to point out that a permit is absolutely necessary since it is a Marine Reserve. Don’t forget to request it at the Dénia Tourist Office. |
