La Palomita
★★★★★
(134)
Great dive site for novice divers, photographers, and night dives. Max depth 9-12m/30-40ft; current varies from slow to moderate so even though it’s close to shore, shore diving is not recommended.
Marine life nursery with many juvenile fish species. Popular hang out for golden, spotted, and chain moray eels, various puffer fish, schools of grunts, rays, and a lot of marco life.
