About this dive site

This dive site, El Emisario, offers a convenient boat dive experience just a short distance from Marina Rubicon. The dive begins by descending along the twin pipes, where you should keep an eye out for moray eels that may be sheltering within the crevices. Once past this initial area, the route leads to a vibrant reef. Following the reef towards the sandy bottom, divers have opportunities to spot angel sharks and rays. Returning to the boat, explore the various sand bays adjacent to the pipes—there’s a chance you might encounter a turtle! The dive site provides a varied underwater landscape suitable for those comfortable navigating sandy areas.
