CADAQUES DIVERS

Tucked into the seafront village of Cadaqués, Spain, Cadaqués Divers is a small, family-run dive centre with a long dedication to the underwater world. The pier sits just a few metres from the door, where their boat "Fauna" — with a maximum capacity of 12 divers — keeps every outing to a genuinely small group.

Diving in Cap de Creus

Every dive takes place in the Cap de Creus Natural Park, one of the richest areas for fauna and flora in the Mediterranean. As a PADI 5 Star Dive Center with 2 PADI instructors, the team welcomes divers in English, Spanish, French and Italian, and offers full equipment rental from 5mm and 7mm wetsuits to large and small cylinders, plus children's sizes.

Though the centre opens for the summer season, the family dives year-round — monitoring species and cleaning the seabed they call home. There's also a shop of sustainable fashion and decoration to browse before or after your dive. It suits anyone eager to discover the seabed of Cap de Creus in small, well-cared-for company.
