Dive-site story
Situated along the reef system extending off Escarceo Point, this site centers on a natural tunnel bored through an overgrown limestone ridge. Divers navigate across a vibrant coral plateau before passing through the swim-through, which is encrusted with sponges, crinoids, and soft corals. Tidal water pushing past the point brings pelagic predators into the surrounding blue, while macro critters shelter along the rocky crevices.
