Fallen Rock
Fallen Rock is one of the best dive sites in Puerto Rico. This uniquely shaped dive site is a 45-minute trip from La Parguera and is one of the “most sought-after destinations” in Puerto Rico according to Scuba Diving Magazine. It’s a V-shaped notch in the wall where a large coral-covered boulder broke off and formed a pinnacle. The dive site has steep drop-offs descending well past 100 feet. It provides spectacular opportunities for photography, deep diving, and challenging dives. It is only a 12-minute boat ride from Playa Santa, making it a great day trip!
Great spot to spot open water animals such as barracudas and spotted eagle rays in the deep blue. The wall where you begin your dive is covered with coral with a magnitude of marine animals. Crabs and other invertebrates hide among the coral structures while reef fish swim around in the blue. There are plenty of Chromis around along with Caesar grunts, schoolmasters, and Spanish Hawkfish. Once you are near the deep descent you are also more likely to spot ocean triggerfish and pelagic including mackerels, jacks, barracuda, and spotted eagle rays.
Location: Guanica, Puerto Rico.
