Location: It is located to the north of Santa Cruz Island, 30 minutes from Itabaca Channel (north side of Santa Cruz).
Conditions of the Site: It is a site with slightly more difficulty compared to Seymour Channel, with a rocky bottom and small caves at 12 meters where you can find turtles, rays, or white-tip reef sharks resting; stronger currents may be present. The diving is mixed, which means that divers explore the coast and then go out into the blue to search for pelagic animals. At the end of the dive, there is a platform where you can observe white-tip reef sharks playing in the current and a cleaning station.
Activities: Cleaning station, sea lions, white/blacktip reef sharks, hammerhead sharks, mobulas, turtles, reef fish, pancake rays, eagle rays, garden eels, barracudas, and a variety of invertebrate mollusks.
