About this site
Lago Reef lies off the southeastern coast of Aruba, near Lago Colony and San Nicolas, an area historically tied to the old Lago oil refinery. This stretch of coastline drops into the Caribbean Sea and is reached by boat from the island's southern shore. It is rated a beginner dive, making it accessible to divers without much experience.
