About this site
Los Cocos Coral Reef is a reef near La Romana in the Dominican Republic, at a depth of 12 metres (40 feet). It lies in the western area of the Catuano Channel, and the experience level given for it is Open Water Diver.
The channel waters are brushed by currents generated by tides and wind, and these currents have shaped a distinctive underwater community. Sponges here can reach astonishing sizes of up to 1.2 metres, and octocorals grow up to 2 metres.
