Condições de Mergulho
The water temperature in Colombia averages 28° C / 82° F. It peaks in June and during winter months the temperature still doesn’t get lower than a comfortable 26° C/80° F.
The currents vary from dive site to dive site, but they are generally milder on the Caribbean coast than on the Pacific coast, where strong currents call for more experienced divers.
Depending on the dive site, the visibility varies from 15 to 30 meters (50 to 100 feet).

Destaques
Malpelo Island
Malpelo Island is a UNESCO world heritage site and a renowned shark diving destination. Plus, the authorities only allow one dive boat at a time to the site. This no-fishing zone provides habitat for many threatened marine species. Most of all, it is a reservoir for hammerhead, silky, and whale sharks, providing an undisturbed environment where the animals still maintain their natural behavioral patterns. Other sightings include groupers, eagle rays, batfish, grunts, goatfish, and jacks.
Isla San Andres
The San Andres island is located in the Caribbean Sea and it’s renowned for its coral reefs. A UNESCO biosphere reserve, the waters surrounding the island offer over 80 species of coral and more than 270 species of fish, turtles, and sea sponges. One of the most popular dive sites in San Andres is Blue Wall where divers can observe sharks, stingrays, and barracudas, among many other marine creatures.
Islas Rosarios
Rosario Islands are a chain of 27 coral islands just an hour’s cruise away from Cartagena. Because of its pristine ecosystem, the archipelago was declared a national park and is now a popular swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving destination. All dive sites around the Rosario Islands are surrounded by a great variety of soft and hard corals and sponges. There are also a few wreck-dives for those interested in something a little different.
