About this dive site

This dive site is a truly unique geothermal experience. It features consistently warm water, maintaining temperatures between 92 and 96 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. Diving this location requires reservations to manage access. Due to its elevated position – the crater sits just above 5000 feet – it’s considered an altitude dive. This site offers a memorable and exciting experience for divers. Because of the unique environment, it’s recommended that divers are prepared for potentially cooler temperatures at depth.
