Puerto de Abrigo

Right at the entrance of the Puerto de Abrigo marina, a wall drop off starts at 45 ft/15m of depth. The wall extends over one kilometer North to Cantarel, past the Coral Princess hotel. Frequent strong currents take divers flying over the reef, sometimes finishing the dive in another site.

Marine life at this site

Barracudas, grunts and surgeon fish all year round. Schools of eage rays famously visit the wall swimming against the current in spectacular displays of power.
