GARGANTA DEL DIABLO

 

DEPTH: 80’-130’

SKILL LEVEL: Advanced

A narrow tunnel lined with red sponges, which is located inside this dive area’s largest coral mound.

Descending into a wide, sloping sandy area at 60 ft, you will make your way to a huge coral mound and enter a large cave that leads to a smaller cavern. Here you will see the narrow opening of the “throat” (garganta) which takes you to 80 ft. at a 45 ft. degree angle, down to the deep blue exit at 130 ft. The swim only last a few seconds but it’s an unforgettable experience! Good buoyancy is essential in order to avoid damaging the coral and stirring up the sand behind you.

Due to narrow penetrations and depth, this dive is recommended for very advanced divers with excellent buoyancy and air consumption.
