El Aquario
★★★★☆
(728)
This is a great pure deep and wall dive and can be done either as a drift dive (make sure you clear the boat channel to Saayas or Lighthouse if heading west/north) or a stationary dive. Belying its name the mooring is only in about 25 ft / 8 m on the top reef, but a short swim to the wall explains the name.
Giant barrel sponges, tube sponges, azure vases, huge plate corals and fans, and other corals are in abundance.
