The study on the impact of recreational diving on a strip of the tropical coast of Granada on the orange coral reveals that there have been more dives than allowed each year, to which are added the inexperienced divers. Consequently, this type of coral, a species endemic to the Mediterranean that is listed as vulnerable in the Spanish Catalogue of Endangered Species and the Red Book of Invertebrates of Andalusia, is being affected.
