Pedra De Deu & Cova De La Reina

L'Estartit, Spain

David and I really needed to get away for a few days, so we decided to try L'Estartit up near the border with France.

Day 1 we met at the dive centre and met the crew of the boat. They were really friendly and showed us the way. We got our kit ready and made our way to the dive sites. Such beautiful scenery and great weather with skies filled with sunshine. We had 6 good dives over 3 days and saw lots of large Barracudas, Groupers and fantastic corals.
