Roses
Roses is the perfect destination to combine a family holiday with diving. This traditional fishing village with an important, completely sheltered port to the south of Cap de Creus is an ideal point from which to start to discover the Cap de Creus Natural Park. A short boat ride in the company of our experts is a voyage to discover all types of dives for all levels, including Cap Falcó and Cap Norfeu, to name just a few.
For the beginner
Our diving centres, Roses Sub and CIR Roses, are ideal for a first-time diving experience in terms of both safety and the sheer beauty of the sea beds. Both centres are just a few minutes’ boat ride from ideal places for a “sea baptism” or snorkelling, another fun experience for those new to the world of diving, be it with a partner, family or friends. Your journey of discovery will take you to magical, often totally unknown places. The first few metres under the surface of the water, the so-called well-lit zone, will delight you with its bursts of colour and life, which the guides will help you put names to. A phenomenal experience!
For scuba divers
Daily diving trips to the southern area of Cap de Creus and sometimes to the Montgrí coast are organised from the diving centres in Roses. You will have the chance to see coralligenous, spongy, gorgonian and rocky sea beds, walls, caves and the shipwreck, all of which bring colour and life to the sea bed.
And after your dive
The archaeologic site of Ciutadella is well worth a visit. On the seafront, a short walk from the town centre, here you can find out about the history of the area and how it has been occupied for thousands of years. Why not take the tourist train and all the family can enjoy spectacular views around Cap de Creus? Empuriabrava with its canals and houses with landing stages is just a stone’s throw away and don’t forget the activities offered by its aerotrain that give you a taste of the world of parachuting in a completely safe environment.
