Pucusana: kelp forest dive south of Lima
Scuba DivingShoreIntermediate
South-of-Lima shore dive with kelp forest structure, rocky walls, and enough local support to work as a straightforward day trip.
About Pucusana
Pucusana is a cold-water Pacific dive south of Lima, built around kelp forest structure, rocky walls, and a marine-life mix that makes it one of Peru’s most distinctive underwater areas. It works best as a guided shore-day destination with clear logistics, a real depth range, and a very different ecosystem from tropical reef diving.
