Diving holidays in the Mediterranean

The next holiday in the Mediterranean should be a diving holiday: either to learn to dive or as an exploration tour for experienced divers to discover new diving spots in the world. Mallorca is an ideal destination for a diving holiday in the Mediterranean, with its turquoise waters, diverse underwater life and picturesque seascapes. There are numerous marine reserves along Mallorca's coast, such as the island archipelago of Cabrera or the Illa del Toro, where a fascinating wealth of species awaits you.

What you can expect on a diving holiday in the Mediterranean in Mallorca

The climate is predominantly warm all year round and the water temperature is pleasant for diving from March to October. When diving in Mallorca, you will often encounter curious golden stripefish, schools of barracudas, large groupers, eagle rays, stingrays, monk fish, peacock fish, scorpion fish, bright red or black starfish, moray eels and octopuses underwater. With a bit of luck, you may also see seahorses, dolphins, moonfish and turtles on a diving holiday in the Mediterranean in Mallorca. The flora is extremely pretty, from feathery tube worms and delicate corals to cylindrical roses gently swaying in the waves.

On the south-west coast of Mallorca in particular, there are several marine reserves right next to each other, so you can reach many excellent diving spots even on a short diving holiday in the Mediterranean. From the nature-protected island of Dragonera, where you can occasionally spot dolphins, it is only a few minutes to the Malgrats Islands, which lie close to Mallorca's coast and offer the ideal hiding places for a variety of marine life with their jagged rock faces.

The Illa del Toro is considered by many to be the best diving spot on the island, as the visibility is excellent and you can discover a large number of different fish and creatures in just one dive. But the other coasts of Mallorca are also ideal for a diving holiday in the Mediterranean: off Palma there are several wrecks waiting for experienced divers, on the east coast there are numerous cave systems that extend to the north coast with further impressive cliffs and nature reserves.

Affordable travel and accommodation on a diving holiday in the Mediterranean

Mallorca offers tourists everything their heart desires: cheap flights to many German airports, affordable hotels and holiday flats of all categories, a good infrastructure and a large number of German-speaking diving schools that will teach you how to dive during your diving holiday in the Mediterranean or take you to the most beautiful diving spots off the coast. Even after diving, you can relax perfectly in the pleasant climate on Mallorca and enjoy the marvellous nature. Mallorca also offers numerous excursion options for the day before travelling home, when diving is not possible.
