Offshore massif half a nautical mile north of Cap de Begur: a 14 m summit plateau, a gorgonian wall falling past 50 m and a second pinnacle.
Last updated October 2026
The mooring buoy is fixed on the summit of the massif, and the plateau top lies at about 14 m. From there the rock offers two ways down. On the north side the plateau ends at a wall that is almost vertical and covered in red and yellow gorgonians; this is the face the site is sold on, and divers who have visited praise the scenery along it. On the southwest side the descent is more gradual, with abundant life across the slope.
A second, smaller pinnacle stands to the east. Its top is reported at about 26 m, and its cracks are where large conger and morays are easiest to find. Barracuda shoals turn up on the ascent.
The north face is the draw: a gorgonian wall in open water, half a nautical mile north of Cap de Begur and in front of Illa Fitó, with no cove to shelter it.
The rock also has two levels. A plateau at 14 m and a separate pinnacle whose top is already at 26 m give the same site a shallower route and a deeper one, with the wall below the plateau as the third option for teams with the depth plan for it.
Current can run strong at the buoy and along the north face. One group's visit in 2013 ended its north-face time early because of it, and operators describe the site for experienced divers. Tramontana affects the cape just to the south, and this rock has no shelter of its own.
The wall keeps falling well past 50 m, so the depth ceiling and the turnaround are agreed before the descent and held on the way down.

Dive centres in Catalonia must require insurance from every diver on their dives, and must be able to offer a policy to anyone who has none.
The top of the plateau lies within 18 m, and one operator says dives of every level are possible here. The other operators that grade the site all rate it Advanced, because of the open-sea position, the occasional strong current and the wall that falls past 50 m beside the plateau. An Open Water diver who wants only the plateau should settle that plan with the centre first.
Those figures are operators' totals for the relief of the whole rock, from the plateau top to the base, and they differ by operator: 56, 60 and 65 m. Divers who have organised trips here describe the dive itself as going down to about 50 m on the north wall. How deep a team goes is decided in the briefing and by the depth ceiling it agrees.
One operator names the second pinnacle the Furionet and gives its top at about 26 m. Another calls the smaller rock the Furió pequeño and says large congers and morays are easy to find there, and a third describes a separate rock to the east. They appear to be the same pinnacle. The main massif, with the plateau and the north wall, is the Furió grande.
