Why dive here
With 517+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue sharks, dolphins, eagle rays and hammerhead sharks - Punta Granate offers some of Santa Marta & Tayrona's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest June, July, September.
Punta Granate offers straightforward diving just off the coast. We typically find schools of snapper and grunt milling around the rock formations, with moray eels often peeking from crevices. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive, suitable for newer divers or those looking for an easy afternoon in the water. Visibility averages 10-15 meters on a good day.
