About this site
Currents sweep past dramatic volcanic formations at this legendary Galapagos site. Schools of hammerheads patrol the deep blue, while playful sea lions dart through the surge. Towering pinnacles host colorful coral patches teeming with tropical fish. Strong currents attract pelagics—expect encounters with massive whale sharks from June to November. Advanced divers relish the adrenaline rush as they drift along sheer walls covered in black coral. Visibility often exceeds 30 meters, revealing the full spectacle of this underwater theater.
