14Cueva del Morach
Attention: this dive can be very dangerous if you pass the entrance into the interior of the subterranean river. There the current is very strong. The mix of sweat water with salt water is amazing. In the south end of the car parking in Playa de Moraig there´s a cave, the "Cueva de los Arcos" where you dive trough a tunnel to the open sea. Swim south, near the wall, until you find an entrance into a cave: that´s the Cueva del Morach, a subterranean river. Cueva del Morach is also known as Cova de moraig.

16La Punta
there is a big rock at ca. 34 meters and because it is out of reach for a lot of spear fishers and a lot of fresh water comes in deeper parts, there is abundancy of marine life. Murray Eels, Congers Eels and of course many Lobsters ... Accessing the dive site is done by boat it is a too far swim from the beach. Almost all the dive centres in the area offer this dive site. Normally there is not a lot of current, but depending upon the weather sometimes this dive site is inaccessible caused by braking waves and/or sometimes too strong currents. La Punta is also known as La roca de langostas.

Nice, shallow dive site with frequent interesting marine life. Rocky bottom housing moray eels, lobsters,... Best accessible by boat. Also on foot, wich means a good walk on the boardwalk with full equipment. Not so easy to climb down the rocks to enter the water

19Cap d'or
Inside the bay of Moraira and along the wall of the cape this is a very good spot for first diving experiences. At the point of the cape, separated from the wall there is a beautiful stone, full with life. At this point currents can hit quite hard, making in difficult to return into the bay. Night diving here is a wonder.
