Boat diving
The dive starts at the Chiclón de Tierra, the shallow one, and continues progressively until the Chiclón de Más Afuera, which reaches a maximum depth of approximately 43 meters. This is a wall type dive, where the descent is made by anchoring at the top of the structure and following the rock wall to reach the deepest point.
The wall has a rich biodiversity, highlighting the presence of purple and white gorgonians, gerardias, nudibranchs and other benthic species. The presence of red coral (Corallium rubrum) at relatively lower depths than usual is particularly relevant, and it is common to see a locust in the area closest to the bottom.
