This dive site, known as Vidal, is considered one of the most complete and impressive diving locations on Arvoredo Island. It offers a diverse underwater landscape, reaching depths of up to 30 meters. The area features varied rock formations, ranging from small boulders to submerged cliffs. Closer to shore, within a sheltered bay, there's an extensive shallow area only 2 meters deep. It’s frequently possible to encounter groups of turtles feeding on algae. At approximately 5 meters, you will find a remarkable underwater cave, one of the most beautiful in the island. While access is available, it’s recommended not to traverse it due to its relatively narrow passage and ceiling. This area is home to dense schools of small fish.
