IT DISCOVERS THE MARINE BOTTOMS WHILE YOU SAIL

  To dive is a perfectly complementary to the navigation of recreation and very recommendable activity in waters of Majorca due to the beauty of its bottoms.  To dive with bottles allows us to undergo a strong sensation of freedom, tranquility, silence, and peace. Characteristics all attributable also to navigation to candle. For that reason it is no wonder if to you it likes the candle, it is than probable more that it can do `good crumbs' with the diving.

  The Mediterranean is a great site to dive, with clear waters and temperatures that in summer are very pleasant and little make the necessity necessary of the neoprene suit. And although all the Balearics have good places of diving, Majorca and concretely the neighborhoods to the Formentor end, closely together of the bay of Alcudia offers matchless points of diving.

  The North end of the tramontana coast offers cliffs that sink to tip within the sea, creating impressive zones subaqueous by its submarine relief. Already passed the end and the coast formentor takes that us to the bay of Pollensa, we will find great rocks, winding corridors, channels, funny passages, and a submarine fauna that little by little is recovered of the excesses of only some years ago.

It pierces Carbo: Located in cove San Vicente and surrounded by imposing cliffs by the formentor end this precious place perfectly it is adapted to realize nocturnal immersions or immersions of learning. We will find formation peculiar rocky surrounded by much life. It is necessary to have well-taken care of with the winds of the northeast that can make their access dangerous.

It is Colomer: A surprising immersion in which we will discover a rock column that submerges in the water. We must cast anchor with about 8 meters of sounding in half of the channel and observe the currents. Diving the island leaving it on our right. One is a full place of interesting life and by the possibility of finding species little common.

Formentor end: Located in the most North end of Majorca it must be considered with respect the North days with bad sea or wind that can make their navigation dangerous. Under the water we found lengths guns that descend until the 50 or 60 meters of depth and that hides abundant lobsters, chorales and great banks of tunas.  From the end it is possible to be acceded to the exits of some caves that must end at different places from the end. A precious but very technical immersion by its irrigation of current and great depth that will force to us to pay much attention to the computer, and in which the use of Nitrox is recommendable, to extend the basic time. Only for expert divers.

The stairs: Near the vertical of the light of Formentor, stairs are descried that are introduced in the water, and they will mark the beginning to us of an immersion of upper middle difficulty. We will follow the wall until reaching a rock drip cleared near an entrant who seems a horizontal cave without development to about 15 meters basic. The maximum depth will not happen of the 30 meters.

The cave in `S': Another immersion outpost that only offers the opening to us of the cave to 4 meters of depth and that descends in spiral until the 20 meters forming several forms from S. We will be able to find barracudas, colored people and tunas. It has the width sufficient to realize the free fall without problems, but we must have well-taken care of in not removing the mud of the bottom under pain to lose all the visibility and to generate possible situations potentially dangerous.

The bridge of Maria: Very pretty immersion for advanced divers that a passage with very interesting bridges and passages offers. One is a surprising place by the amount of life and the colorful one of the chorales, in whom we will be able to descend until the 40 meters.

The Hieronymite cave: A simply spectacular site and that only requires a mean level of diving. We will cast anchor at the end of a steep length that descends vertically until about 20 meters, where appears the entrance to the cave, with a continued and simple ascent in which we must make a shutdown of security to 3 or 4 meters before leaving within the cavern to surface in half of an inner lake. We will be velvety by the silence and the transparency of waters. Soon after we will be surprised by a turkish blue iridiscencia that floods the immense inner lake coming from the bottom. Its light allows to contemplate the inner cathedral us adorned by all type of stalactites Something almost supernatural!

The cave in `A': One is a cave whose entrance in the form of `To' gives rise little to its original name. It descends until the 18 meters and after a horizontal development it begins the ascent section that little by little is narrowed until returning to widen in its part superior in which it is possible to be left in an air bell. 

Tunnels of the love: Immersion in which we will be able to cross several tunnels that realize funny meanders on the own wall of the cliff. It does not have any difficulty and light is always seen because the hollows are broken and let pass rays solar.

The pinnacle: Located in Murta cove this interesting pinnacle it can be dived to about 14 meters basic, diving between rocks and cleared blocks observing pulpy cuttle fish. Near the interesting surface we will be able several formation in the form of arc with life to his enough around.

Fallen rocks: One more a clearer zone in the cliff marks the place to us in that we must begin the immersion, marked by rocks cleared and great cracks. We will be able to see anemones and different sponges near the wall in which to finish our immersion in less deep waters enough but with life.

Formentor island: One is a small small barren island located to only 50 meters of the coast. It offers interesting bottoms on the 15 meters of depth. When beginning the immersion we can follow the wall leaving it to the right and about 12 meters of depth. It is easy to find fish scorpion, colored people in the hollows and pulpy between rocks.

Point of l' Avensada: Leaving the port of pollensa towards the Northeast we will discover a light in the middle of the bay of Pollensa. Nóveles is a place of little ideal depth for the divers that want to test of bouyancy and to begin this exciting sport.

The cave of the captain: Little deep diving for nascent, with interesting and safe caverns and simple hollows. The immersion to 12 meters can be begun to finish in less deep waters near a rock with form of enormous mushroom.

The bridge: One is a good diving for training. Interesting rocks with prairies of poseidonia. An interesting and easy place.

Gruyere cheese:  A full peculiar diving of passages and hollows by which we can cross and be ventured. Of moderate difficulty to simple we will be able to discover pulpy, brown and other interesting forms of life.

`Houses of the holy': You remember this famous album of LED Zeppeling'. The submarine landscape of this immersion with guns and interesting cracks and passages remembers the drawing of the cover of this disc.  It suddenly appears a diver from any corner or passage and turns out funny to walk by these bottoms, being begun the little deep water immersion descending slowly soon to emerge in the zone of the' cheese from gruyere'.

Pebbles: For advanced divers. A wall will lead to about 12 meters of depth between interesting rocks and formation to us in the form of arc. Although it is possible to be descended until the 30 or 40 meters, is an immersion with great abundance of life over the 20 meters, in which we will discover fish crossbow, nudibranquios, barracudas and lobsters at night.

The secret squirrel: One is an immersion of little complicated depth but, so that only for advanced divers. To about 5 meters of depth we will find an entrance to a cave that after a short route takes to us until a cavern with beach including. An incredible spectacle!

Temple of Neptune: A fascinating one and little frequented diving place. It is only possible to be acceded when the sea perfectly is calmed. It is formed by a labyrinth of tunnels formed in an enormous slab. Enough around and very peculiar life by the winding steps.
