Roca Sucia, Dirty Rock
★★★★☆
(380)
Dirty Rock is located on the way from Potrero Flamingo to Catalinas, at 8km from the coast. Possible to dive all the year. Sometimes the current is very strong. You have a shallow part (8-13m) close to the pinnacle on the east side, but you can find 35m depth if you go to the north and 27m in the south.
In this site you can see everything. Very special is that on the east side barber fish, king angel fish and chancho surgeon fish follow the divers! You see also sharks, rays, turtles...
