Reserva dels Freus (La Pared de los Meros) – Balearic Islands – Ibiza & Formentera

Site Overview

The Reserva Marina dels Freus protects the channels between Ibiza and Formentera, with La Pared de los Meros a signature wall crowded with huge groupers, barracuda and gorgonians. Visibility reaches 30 m and the protected status keeps the fish bold, making it one of the Balearics’ best wall dives. Intermediate and advanced divers explore the drop-offs, while the surrounding reserve offers pinnacles and seamounts. The Freus reserve is the heart of Ibiza-Formentera diving. The site rewards careful planning, good buoyancy and respect for Spain’s marine-protection rules, and remains a favourite among divers who value dramatic volcanic or Mediterranean scenery, historic wrecks and rich marine life across a long, varied season.
