    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Punta is a gentle slope, mostly rubble and sand, but we always find something interesting in the macro world if we slow down. Look for gobies, blennies, and the occasional pipefish tucked into the detritus. It’s a good spot for a second dive, particularly if you’re into critter hunting and prefer a relaxed pace over dramatic scenery.
