La Poza, Xcalak
★★★★★
(128)
An very nice underwater trench that makes for a beautiful wall dive. Current can sometimes convert it into drift diving. The depth ranges from 5 m/15 ft to 26m/90ft. It is full of alcoves where fish hide and tower-like structures of coral at the end of the dive.
Manatee alert !! Look for these gentle mammals after the beautiful elkhorn corals at the beginning that then give way to big schools of tarpons of 2 meters/5-6 feet.
