Las Coloradas
Las Coloradas is a 10 minute boat ride from the Marina Rubicon in Playa Blanca and the closest dive site to the underwater museum. This dive site has benefited from the new artificial reef. The marine life has become attracted to the sculptures and has overflowed onto the Coloradas Reef. There are 2 attractions to this reef. Firstly all the overhangs, where you can find anemones and rays hiding away, and an awesome swim through as well. The topography is stunning and completely different to Playa Chica. Then the other side is the endless white sand where you can find the angel sharks and rays hanging out!
You can expect to find: volcanic swim-throughs, colourful anemones, common Atlantic stingrays, angel sharks
