Dive-site story
Located off the coast of San Andrés, La Pirámide centers on a distinct pyramid-shaped coral formation rising from a flat sandy plateau. Coral heads and gorgonians cover the structure, providing shelter to resident morays and small reef fish. Calm waters and gentle topography make the site a staple for relaxing drift-style explorations and refresher dives.
