El Port de la Selva is a small coastal town on Spain’s Costa Brava in Catalonia, with easy access to Mediterranean diving conditions. Day trips from the port are common for reaching nearby rocky coasts, small reefs, and drop-offs where you can expect clear water on calmer days, with typical Mediterranean fish and occasional larger sightings depending on the season and the specific site. Local dive centers usually focus on guided dives, equipment rental, and courses, and the area is also used for training because shore access can be practical. Banyoles Lake is in the region but it’s inland, so freshwater diving there is generally a separate outing rather than something you’d do from the immediate shoreline.
