About this site
Las Cuevitas and El Canal is a dive at Bavaro where underwater caves and rock formations shape the landscape. Depths run from 12 metres (39 feet) to 22 metres (72 feet), so the site offers a lot of exploring without going deep.
The shallower sections let divers of any experience level enjoy the underwater scenery, while the caves add to the route. Open Water Diver is the level listed for the site.
