About San Antonio Point
San Antonio Point is a sheltered San Carlos dive site just north of the marina, built around a shallow rocky point that eases into boulders and sand. The layout is simple to follow and suits relaxed scuba or snorkel sessions in calm water. Expect a low-friction reef dive with angelfish, pufferfish, porcupinefish, octopus, moray eels, and stingrays around the rocks and sand, plus enough structure to keep repeat laps interesting.
