Diving Jardines del Rey
(Cayo Coco & Cayo Guillermo)
Beaches,
fauna, flora and an unspoiled environment in this isolated
nook protected from the hectic world. Endemic tropical nature
close to the Bahamas Channel, and an excellent hotel facility
built like an old Spanish town, guarantee full enjoyment with
no buts about it.
The
coral reef, at a depth of 10-30 meters and over 10 km long,
has such an abundance of fish that dives might believe they
are in an aquarium. This site is practically unmatched in
the world. Large shoals Of tarpon (Megalops atlantica), jacks
(Trachynotus sp.), spadefish (Chartodipterus faber), big snappers
(Lutianus sp.), groupers (Epinephelus sp.), sharks and barracudas
provide a special attraction to the diving activities the
Coco Diving Center has in store just for you.
