About this site
La Poza Azul Dos sits within the Santiaguillo reef system off Anton Lizardo, on the Veracruz coast of the Gulf of Mexico, part of the Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano chain reached by boat from the small fishing village of Anton Lizardo. Divers here have reported elkhorn coral along with a mix of reef fish including Atlantic sergeant majors, Caribbean bluehead wrasse, spotfin butterflyfish, yellowtail damselfish and yellowtail snapper. Green moray eels, queen parrotfish, Spanish hogfish, and the Veracruz white hamlet have also been spotted on the reef.
