About this dive site

This dive site, Pujolet, is a deep bar structure located off the coast of Catalonia, Spain. It lies at depths between 26 and 30 meters, making it an advanced dive, particularly suitable for Nitrox users who wish to extend their bottom time. The prominent feature is a bar that stretches from NW to SE. Due to its significant depth and length, exploring the entire bar in a single dive is challenging, requiring careful planning and gas management.

The porous rock formations of Pujolet create numerous hollows and fissures, providing excellent habitats for a variety of typical Mediterranean marine life. Divers can expect to encounter creatures such as moray eels, groupers, and conger eels nestled within the rocks. Lobsters and various crabs are also common inhabitants, adding to the site's rich biodiversity.

The best time to visit Pujolet is generally during the warmer months when water temperatures are more comfortable. This site is specifically tailored for experienced scuba divers, especially those certified in Nitrox, to fully appreciate its unique underwater topography and abundant life. Freedivers and snorkelers will find the depths too challenging for comprehensive exploration. Always dive with proper certification and gear, considering the deep profile of this site.
