General:
Accessible both by land and by sea, located at Cape Bourouni of Rogdia, the small settlement and the homonymous beach are a small unseen refuge. The dive is focused on the 2 large reefs that also form a barrier to protect from the northwest winds. Starting out, scattered rocks form a pebbly bottom. In the middle of the bay there are meadows of Posidonia that are home to small flocks of nuns and mentules. Small flocks of barbel and spoonbills graze the sandy seabed carelessly. Approaching the reefs, moray eels and lionfish are the first inhabitants we see. The dive is from shore and boat, with an average depth of 11 meters and is ideal for underwater photography and underwater life observation.

Next we will see snappers and starfish looking curiously at the underwater sailors wondering about our existence. Large shoals of sargos and kakarelos swim calmly and lazily at a safe distance. Strange mayflies will appear to watch the bubbles. Capable of sudden movements and rapid charges, they will appear out of the deep blue and disappear within seconds.
The reefs are richly decorated with sponges of various kinds. Black and grey in the bright parts of the reefs, red, purple, blue and yellow in the shady parts. Forests of phaeophytes grow in the shallow parts and in the spring rich in growth are a small refuge for many species of fish. Visibility is very good.
