Chupadero - El Puertito de La Lajita

This dive site, Chupadero - El Puertito de La Lajita, offers two dive areas in one location, making it exceptionally versatile for divers of various skill levels. The shallow depth, with a maximum of 7 meters and an average of 3 meters, makes it perfect for beginners, try dives, snorkeling, and freediving. The underwater topography features varied rock formations and sandy patches, providing excellent habitat for a diverse range of marine life. The abundant marine life includes a vast array of small and medium-sized fish, a variety of crustaceans and fascinating nudibranchs. Larger species such as rays, groupers, morays, octopuses, and even angel sharks can also be observed, though sightings of the latter may be less frequent. The overall diversity of life makes this a visually rich and engaging dive. The best time to visit this site is likely during the warmer months (spring and summer) when water temperatures are pleasant and visibility is typically best. For freedivers, the shallow, calm conditions make for an ideal environment, while divers can enjoy the relatively easy navigation and ample opportunity for macro and wide-angle photography. Always check local weather conditions before embarking on a dive and ensure you have appropriate gear for the water temperature.
