This dive site, known as Playa San Juan, Gym, is a popular shore dive located in a beautiful bay next to an outdoor gym, which gives it its name. Divers can easily access the site from the middle of the town or the harbour. The underwater navigation primarily involves exploring diverse rock formations close to the shore, transitioning to deeper sandy areas.
The site is notable for its marine life, with stingrays frequently observed in the sandy sections at depths around 18 meters. Octopus are also very common, found expertly hidden among the numerous rocks and crevices, offering excellent opportunities for observation.
Playa San Juan typically offers excellent visibility, making it a reliable spot for diving. Its varied depths, from shallow bay areas to deeper sandy patches, make it suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers looking to explore the rock formations and search for marine life. Divers should keep an eye out for hidden octopus and cruising stingrays in the deeper parts.
