Advanced boat dive on a volcanic platform with canyon and hole-through exit.
La Lagunita is a boat-accessed Isla de Lobos dive site built around a volcanic platform on the northeast side of the island. The dive is defined by a canyon entry, a hole-through exit, and a wall that drops from the platform onto sand, giving experienced divers a structured route with plenty of terrain to read. The setting is more rugged than scenic in a soft-reef sense, but it rewards careful buoyancy and a clear plan with strong fish life and distinctive volcanic topography.
