Dive-site story
Situated just south of the entrance to Zihuatanejo Bay, this coastal reef site features granite boulders and scattered coral heads resting on a sandy seabed. Divers navigate along boulder clusters, inspecting crevices for resting nurse sharks and moray eels. Because the reef sits in a relatively sheltered cove, it offers relaxed underwater touring with steady bottom structure.
Granite boulder structures covered in gorgonians and hard coral colonies
Rocky overhangs and crevices sheltering multiple moray eel species
Sandy patches where stingrays and eagle rays frequently forage
