Cala del Aigua Dolç in Javea is a distinctive site defined by freshwater springs emerging from the seabed. These springs create a halocline effect, where the mixing of fresh and salt water results in blurry visibility and noticeably colder temperatures in specific areas. The site features a combination of reef and seagrass habitats. Access is via a shore entry, and the location includes parking facilities. Due to the presence of rip currents, jellyfish, sea urchins, and sharp coral, this site is recommended for intermediate divers. Snorkelling is also popular here, with a rating of 4 out of 5.
