This 142 meter long wreck is the largest in Europe. This former trading vessel ran aground at the gates of the island over a decade ago. It has become a tourist attraction just a few meters from the port of Ibiza. Admire nature taking back its rights at the heart of this testimony to human life. The fauna and flora develop as the wreck degrades. To observe this majestic and impressive spectacle, it is better to have an advanced level in diving. Attention adventurers!
Dado Pequeño
The Dado Pequeño is to Don Pedro what the iceberg is to the Titanic. This seemingly innocuous rock is the cause of the sinking of the Don Pedro. The underwater fauna and flora are rich there: anemones, sponges, scorpion fish and barracudas compete in beauty to capture your attention in a mesmerizing blue setting. The little extra: this site is accessible even to beginners.
Le Phare
