Snorkelling on the Costa Brava
The Medes Islands Nature Reserve is a unique place for shallow diving because of its beautiful sea floor, and it is popular among scuba divers around the world. Its coarse sand beaches and turquoise waters are perfect for snorkelling with flippers and goggles.
On the bottom many aspects stand out: populations of seaweed, seagrass meadows, corals, many species of fish, crabs, and starfish, all of which make up the rich invaluable sea bed.
Scuba diving is a great option for anyone that wishes to explore it with more freedom, although it is regulated given that the Medes Islands are a protected natural area. Scuba diving can be done with personal boats, or with authorised companies that organise trips. Guided sea tours are offered, normally done in groups, with classroom teaching done previously, and with qualified professional guides.
