The so called: ´ soft corral 1 & 2 ´ dive spots were terrible. Because, some years ago, it was popular to use dynamite for fishing in the region. First time in my live I was diving like ´ on the moon ´ ! All dead down there. Almost no fishes and if very small reef fishes ONLY. Visibility on that day was poor, only 3-5 meter as a max. Before we started to our second dive that day (from the boat) we saw some guys in their boat crossing our way to the second spot, and their boat was full with fresh stolen corrals !! So basically, they used a hammer to brake them off the sea, prepare them somewhere else to sell those corrals later on the market, as a souvenir for a desk or similar. Unbelievable, as this all was done in a NATIONAL PARK. Nobody seems interested in it at all. Plastic bags all over the place, floating in the water, even in max 18 meter depth you find so many of those!! It´s a shame, because we as divers regular love / like the nature. This is the opposite side. Unfortunately, the guys do not have any awareness for the own great territory. Overall and after our return to the Island with our dive boat, we found a dead floating sea turtle in the harbour. This final impression underlined the not so funny experience of that day. Waist of time & money to dive there at all.
Staff, people over there were all extremely friendly, no doubt about this one !!
