About this site
La Torta is one of the dive sites around Malpelo Island, a remote, rocky islet in the Pacific Ocean roughly 500 kilometers off the Colombian coast, accessible only by liveaboard. The waters surrounding Malpelo are part of a marine protected area and fauna sanctuary known for pelagic encounters, though specific conditions at this exact site are not something to detail without confirmed data.
