About this site
Palmar sits along Colombia's Caribbean coastline near the Gulf of Urabá in Chocó department, an area where the coast transitions between mangrove-lined shores and rockier points further offshore. Dive access along this part of Colombia's Caribbean typically depends on small local boats out of nearby coastal communities. Divers here have reported greater star coral, lettuce coral, massive starlet coral, and mustard hill coral on the reef, along with stoplight parrotfish moving over the structure.
