About this site
Maracaibo lies off the coast of Quintana Roo, Mexico, part of the reef system along the Yucatan Peninsula's Caribbean side. It reaches a maximum depth of about 43.8 metres over a wall, and is considered an advanced dive due to strong current. A single source reports hazards including the deep depth, exposure to current and topside surf, and unpredictable current, and the same source lists eagle rays and hammerhead sharks as marine life encountered here.
