Dive-site story
Deep Wall sits along the Atlantic coast off Sosúa, featuring a pronounced coral drop-off that plunges into deep open water. Divers cruise past large gorgonians, tube sponges, and sea fans lining the vertical face, keeping an eye on the blue for pelagic visitors while checking cracks in the rock for macro critters.
