LOS ARCOS
This beautiful dive takes place on the north face of the rock and
is characterized by a rocky bottom made up of large stones arranged in
such a way that creates contraluces colorful and intriguing ways, but
it takes the name of the arches have been formed in some of these huge
rocks where no doubt and if the visibility accompanies us dazzled by
the attractive environment and that they generate will delight the
Fotosub. The whimsical disposition of the rocks and the many points of
interest allow improvise any route but as a proposal and if we are at
anchor in the area of arcs as usual at the dive come, we will descend
to a depth of about -9m to try to win some depth, and immediately find
the first and largest of the arches, spectacular gateway to the blue,
upholstered in its roof by encrusting gorgonian, is guarded by many
sentries as of Sarge. If we move forward, this fund is characterized by
rocks covered with algae, in contrast with another gritty soon with
some scattered rock and crowned with Neptune. Following the profile of
the fall of the rock and sand can go toward the tip of the rock (about
150 degrees) to observe the beautiful balconies that form the rocks to
make way for the sand, soon to be closed looking rock wall . Then again
the big rocks with lots of caves and holes where they find shelter
morays, groupers and croakers. When you reach the wall to our left we
can leave and still enjoy this curious substance to finally get to
where we anchored, to visit some other arcs-8mts are almost opposite to
that taken as a beginning of the route.

LES XARXA
In the north face of the rock near the arches we find this very
interesting place to dive into a depth of bedrock in which many large
rock formations from the falling rock. The name takes a few fishing
nets that have been engaged in some of the larger stones and high
background, so it is easy to avoid though, should look to avoid any
incident.
Anchor close to the wall, which introduces vertical in the water
to soften then the slope as slope and reach a depth of about-17m. If we
see something deep with boulders proliferation of algae, anemones and
gorgonians. The characteristics of the kind of background makes
abundant refuge crevices where morays, lobsters, octopuses, or just
shy. Moving around well-20m and parallel to the coast due to
approximately 120 degrees, then find other huge stones that appear in
the network as a perverse attachment mantle. This will be time to head
to the wall of rock gradually reduced depth and entertained with the
many rocks that attract our attention, in a fund of between -15
and-17mts where we can see on the wall like little cows and nudibranchs
clavelinas reaching the height of the boat where we can get up on the
wall, if the sea conditions permit, either to go out and anchor it
