La Herradura Beach

La Herradura Beach is a beginner-friendly shore dive on Spain's Costa Tropical, offering easy access to Mediterranean marine life in a stunning horseshoe-shaped bay. The sandy bottom gives way to rocky outcrops with posidonia beds hosting seahorses, pipefish, and nudibranchs. Schools of damselfish, wrasses, and bream populate the shallows. The protected bay ensures calm conditions year-round. The dramatic backdrop of the Sierra Nevada mountains adds a spectacular setting to this accessible Mediterranean diving destination.
