Dive Review
“The site was amazing and enjoyable! I like that the site is part of the Hol-Chan Marine Reserve. I think this is why there was so much sea life. There were sharks and turtles and many fish species. There were several sharks that we kept an eye on, but they did not bother us. I assumed they are used to seeing divers in the marine reserve. I also observed large sponge and coral species that I had not seen before, a few were several feet tall (3-4 ft, if I remember correctly).”

“This was a great time. Took a boat out from San Pedro. There were a few groups out there but not too bad. Saw an eagle ray + three seahorses, tons of fish, and a good amount of nurse sharks.”
