    Rojo Reef offers a straightforward dive down to 18m, suitable for intermediate divers. We often find schooling surgeonfish here, with a few green sea turtles typically cruising the ledges. The reef itself has some interesting crevices to explore, but it’s not the most vibrant coral we've seen. It’s a decent option if you're looking for an easy, relaxing dive without strong currents.
