Boca de Cote
(Diving in Los
Roques) #
08 on map.
Level of experience: beginner to advanced
Approximately 10 miles south of Gran Roque, after crossing the
shallow waters of the archipelago’s inside sea we find Boca de
Cote. Here we can see some relatively flat terraces next to the
coast, 3 to 9 meters deep. Coral predominant in this area are
the fire colored corals and a wide variety of fish species and
under the great mass of stone coral, tiger sharks. Right after
this terrace a wide slope begins of about 40 to 50 degrees and
then falls down to about 50 meters where the sandy bottom
begins. Some 25 meters deep branches of black coral and
cylindrical sponges are quite abundant. Some times the
visibility in this area is over 40 meters.
Level of experience:
beginner (B), beginner to advanced (BA), medium to advanced
(MA)
