★★★★☆
(586)
Pailas is located 20 minutes from Potrero Beach. We start the dive on the western part of the island and head south following the rock formations. The average depth is 14m, but can exceed 30m if you deviate a little.
There is a cleaning station with the possibility of seeing the mantas during season. Many species of schooling fish and if you go there when the water is cool. Many stingrays can be seen!
