About El Tazón
El Tazón is the Peñón bowl: a carved rock basin where larger fish gather around an advanced dive profile. It works well as a shore-access or one-way route dive, depending on how your operator runs the site, and the best plans keep an eye on the route out toward Los Arcos. Expect barracuda, amberjack, sea bream, and the occasional sunfish around a structure that feels more sculpted by the sea than built for comfort.
