Around 6 miles from the Islas Columbretes (Columbretes Islands) in the open sea, volcanic lava was deposited on the seabed, creating a landscape with rocky canyons, arches and caves, all enveloped by totally transparent waters that are home to an explosive variety of fauna, including barracudas, Toothed Bream and immense schools of white seabream and Common Base, while the substrate is delicately covered by colourful vegetation.
