    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Rodeo 25 offers a relaxed drift over sandy patches and low coral formations, good for divers looking for a mellow cruise. We often spot nurse sharks tucked under ledges and plenty of grunts schooling around the small bommies. It’s a straightforward dive, well-suited for newer divers or those who prefer a less strenuous profile, though experienced eyes can still find macro critters in the rubble.
