La Bajita

★★★★☆ (685)

This interesting spot is only 5 minutes south of Los Cancajos, directly at the airport. Rock formations and sandy patches give a home to all kinds of different rays, and in the shallow part, beautiful bays are a home for all kind of small fish.

All kinds of rays are really frequent here. Even a humpback whale has been here, so everything is possible. Octopuses, moray eels, and more!
