Beacon Point

This beautiful wall dive at the western tip of Caracas Bay is best reached by boat and, due to possible strong currents, is best done as a drift dive. On the shallow plateau, you will find large pillar corals.

Critters at this site

Due to the currents there is a good change to see jacks and barracuda in the blue waters. Turtles and green morays are also spotted here.
