About La Boquita
Shore-access La Boquita reef in Coveñas, with a short beach entry, shallow coral patches, and calm water that keeps the site approachable for newer divers. The terrain is simple but still worth a careful read on the day: coral heads, sponges, and light surf can change how easy the entry feels, so it suits relaxed, well-timed sessions rather than rushed drop-ins.
