Punta Argentina

★★★★☆ (914)

Punta Argentina is one of the most popular dive sites in Coco, and well deserved. Around this pinnacle you can find everything from big encounters to tiny macro life. Depths range from 10m/30ft to 27m/95ft. Look above you not to miss the big schools of fish!

Not uncommon to see 5-10 white tip reef sharks resting together on the bottom. Lots of octopus, longtail stingrays, big school of snappers and grunts, and moray eels in the rocks.
