Why Visit Cabo Rosa in Isabela Island?
- The most striking feature of this tour is the opportunity to swim through a network of lava tunnels and arches. These formations, created by volcanic activity, create a surreal underwater landscape
- The crystal-clear waters of the tunnels are home to a variety of marine species, including sea turtles, sea lions, penguins, and a variety of fish. You may even spot seahorses hiding in the crevices and mangroves.
- The Cabo Rosa area is a popular spot for manta rays, and it's not uncommon to encounter these majestic creatures gliding through the water.
