Dive-site story
Set along the Los Cabos tourist corridor, this sheltered horseshoe cove features granitic rock fingers extending outward over a pale sandy seabed. The rocky flanks create protected microhabitats where gorgonians and macro critters cluster, while the sandy basin frequently hosts resting stingrays and schooling reef fish. Because the cove buffers typical Pacific swells, it provides calm conditions favored for check-out dives and relaxed underwater photography.
