    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    L. Joron is a consistent spot for encountering larger pelagics in Coiba. We’ve often seen white-tip reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections and rays gliding over the sandy patches. It's a fairly straightforward dive, usually with moderate current, making it suitable for most certified divers looking for those bigger animal encounters. Keep an eye out into the blue.
