About this site
This Pacific dive site near Oaxaca features dramatic underwater cliffs and caves teeming with marine life. Strong currents bring large pelagics like manta rays and schooling fish. The rocky formations create swim-throughs and overhangs covered in colorful sponges. Visibility varies but rewards divers with encounters with octopus, moray eels, and occasional whale sharks. Best suited for experienced divers due to challenging conditions.
