Rocky wall-and-sand dive with ledges, current, and big fish.
Veril Chico is a rocky-and-sandy reef beside the Jandia coast, with a wall-like profile, cracks, and ledges that reward careful navigation. It suits advanced or otherwise confident divers who want a compact but lively dive with angel sharks, rays, groupers, morays, and other fish sheltering in the structure. Plan the dive for calmer conditions and solid buoyancy control.
