Red Marker

Red Marker is located near the green marker of Hija Fishing Port, north of the Hija River mouth. The dive site features a large reef that extends from east to west over a sandy seabed. The shallow sections reach depths of approximately 5 meters and are primarily covered with soft corals. In contrast, the deeper southern areas consist of a sandy muddy bottom. A notable feature on the western side is a boulder resembling granite, often referred to as a 'stone circle,' which may have originated from a ship's cargo. Marine life includes orthodox spiny dogfish, various wrasse, butterflyfish, and sea otters. All clownfish species are present except for the red clownfish, and rare nudibranchs can be spotted during the winter months. Additionally, the sandy regions on the southern side host a variety of symbiotic gobies, including Newdow's Goby.
