Cuevitas is a shallow Lobos lagoon with volcanic contrast
Cuevitas is a Lobos lagoon with white sand, dark volcanic rock, and bright water that gives the site its signature contrast. The route is more about an easy scenic drift around shallow rock and overhangs than about depth, so it suits relaxed snorkeling and beginner diving. Plan it as a boat-access island outing and check the day's conditions before you go.
