Las Gorgonias is a wall and reef site located off the Bleda menor islet in the Bledes islands. Divers access the site by boat, entering near a narrow strait before descending off the south-west side. The dive begins at a depth of 10 metres, quickly transitioning to a significant drop-off that reaches depths of 40 metres. Due to the depth and the presence of moderate currents, this site is suited for advanced divers. Hazards include boat traffic, variable currents, and significant depth. Water temperatures range from 15C to 19C throughout the year.
