About This Dive Spot

Baja de Luis features a prominent volcanic rock formation that rises from a sandy and rocky seabed, reaching depths of 14 meters. The top of the rock sits at approximately 8 to 9 meters, creating a small wall that divers can navigate around. This area is rich in marine life, with opportunities to observe moray eels, crabs, and prawns hiding in the crevices. Under the overhangs, divers may encounter groupers, breams, and jacks. During certain seasons, sightings of angelsharks, rays, and occasionally turtles can also be expected.
