La Depuradora
La Depuradora is a shore-access wall dive with a tunnel and algae zone.
La Depuradora suits intermediate divers who want short shore access, a split wall/algae profile, and easy macro hunting on calm days.
About La Depuradora
La Depuradora is a shore-access wall dive off the coast with a sandy bottom and two distinct zones: a south wall and a north algae-and-rock section. The south side holds sponges and anemones, while the north side is the better macro zone for nudibranchs and seahorses, with a short tunnel adding overhead interest. It is best treated as a calm-water dive because wind or rougher conditions make the site much less comfortable.
