About This Dive Spot
Crystal Bay is known for the opportunity to see giant Sun fish (Mola mola), which can reach about 3 meters in height. The best visibility occurs here, especially between June and October, and the site is protected from large waves, making it accessible for diving. Expect to see these pelagic fish swimming up from the deep to be cleaned by banner fish in clear waters.
