Tormentos Reef
★★★★☆
(2,047)
Punta Tormentos is a fringing reef which starts immediately after the end of Yucab. The ref is located 600 meters from a sandy cove at the shore in the south end of the w-shaped Punta Tormentos point. The dive is 650 meters (0.4 mi) long, and navigating 40 course after its end leads directly to the No-name reef.
Punta Tormentos is a great spot for spotting marine life but strong currents may hinder photography efforts. Nurse sharks, seahorses, turtles and barracudas are frequently sighted her.
