Diving Puerto Rico
>>
Southwest Wall
This is the gold standard of Puerto Rican diving, available 365 days per year and not weather dependent. The wall comes closest to shore (less than two miles) at Copamarina Guanica Puerto Rico and runs over twenty miles past the southwest corner of the island. Wall diving with very little current is the main attraction plus there are many more shallow sites and great swim throughs. Over 20 dive sites.

Mona and Desecheo Islands
Mona Island, 45 miles off the coast of Puerto Rico, is the “Galapagos of the Caribbean” except with warm water. This is certainly a crown jewel of diving in Puerto Rico. Weather and currents make a trip to Mona very unpredictable but is well worth a try during your stay. Desecheo Islandlace is twelve miles off the coast and offers numerous excellent dive sites. Again, weather and current can make travel plans unpredictable but it is well worth the effort.

Out Islandslace: Culebra and Vieques
Known as the Spanish Virgin Islands, these two jewels are virtually untouched and well worth the extra time on your dive vacation.


PR has at least one dive site for each day of a six month vacation. On average, there are flights landing at one of the three international airports (San Juan SJU, Ponce PSE and Augadilla BQN) every fifteen minutes plus, since Puerto Rico is a commonwealth of the U.S. there is no customs or immigration. Finally, travel packages are among the least expensive in the Caribbean.

Dive Conditions:
Water temps range from 75 in winter to 85 in summer, with visibility averaging 80 feet around the main island, and in excess of 100 feet around the out and offshore islands.

Dive Site of the month.
Fallen Rock
There's a V-shaped notch in a wall, with a bus-shaped, coral-covered boulder that broke off and formed a pinnacle, with sharp drop-offs and a dramatic descent. It's a deep dive, with the top of the reef at 65 feet, and dropping well past 100. Clusters of chromis abound, with Caesar grunts, schoolmasters and Spanish hawkfish. This is also a spot with great chances to see open-water animals, such as ocean triggerfish, and pelagics, like mackerels, jacks, barracuda and spotted eagle rays.

These are very nice dive site descriptions. Do you have an idea where i could find some dive site maps of these sites? I would love to add some dive site maps to my website about diving in Puerto Rico. Are you running a diving operation in Puerto Rico yourself?
