UNESCO World Heritage seagrass meadows and an unusually turquoise Mediterranean water.
Formentera protects one of the most extensive and best-preserved seagrass meadows in the Mediterranean, recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1999. This underwater meadow, key to the island's extraordinary water clarity, is home to seahorses, fan mussels and biodiversity far richer than other Mediterranean areas. Average depth is shallow, making it ideal for beginners and contemplative diving, while the Es Freus strait between Formentera and Ibiza offers currents and more technical dives for advanced divers.
