The 3 Peaks

The 3 Peaks is an advanced dive site off La Herradura on Spain's Costa Tropical, featuring three prominent underwater pinnacles rising from the sandy seabed. These volcanic rock towers create a dramatic landscape that attracts some of the area's most impressive marine life. Large groupers and moray eels inhabit the base of each peak, while barracuda and amberjack patrol the water column between them. The pinnacles' surfaces are covered in colorful gorgonians, sponges, and cup corals, creating a vibrant display at depth. Current exposure can be significant, and the deeper profile demands good air management and buoyancy skills from experienced divers.
