    Los Hermanos offers reliable encounters with playful sea lions, often curious about divers. We typically see white-tip reef sharks resting on the sandy bottom and schools of snapper moving through the rock formations. The currents here can be moderate, making it a good spot for divers comfortable with some movement.
