Diving in Portobelo
Scuba Diving Adventure for Experienced Divers
Our diving activity will begin at the Scuba Portobelo dock, where we'll equip ourselves with all the necessary gear for an immersive experience.
Ready and geared up, we'll set sail on a boat to explore various dive sites. Depending on prevailing weather and sea conditions, our stops may include Drake, Buenaventura, Salmedina, El Faro, Padre Island, Tres Hermanas, Huertas, Parche Point, or El Avion—each just a brief 10-minute trip from the departure dock.
Two dives in total await us. The depth will depend on the experience level of the group and current weather conditions. At our first dive location, you'll witness the enchanting beauty of coral reefs. The underwater landscapes of Portobelo, renowned for their biodiversity, will leave you in awe.
Following the initial dive, we sail to the second point to encounter diverse species native to the Panamanian Caribbean. Keep an eye out for rays, lionfish, French angels, moray eels, and butterfly fish native to these waters.
Concluding our underwater adventure, we'll return to the starting dock, marking the end of this 2-hour diving activity.
