About this site
Sueño de Pescador is a reef dive in the Coiba area. It is described as the twin of the neighbouring Montaña Rusa, since the two lie in direct extension of each other and share a similar shape. The top of the reef starts at around 13 metres, and the reef drops just as deep all around.
With some luck, large schools of fish pass over the site. Different snappers and jacks are usually present, turtles like to swim by, and several types of shark can sometimes be seen out in the blue. The corals are varied too, and include types that do not grow in other parts of Coiba.
The site sits in open sea, and its exposed position means strong currents can occur.
