Chunchacah Reef, sometimes also referred to as Chunchacaab awaits divers seeking a captivating blend of vibrant coral communities and a dive site off-the-beaten path.
Chunchacah is an intricate tapestry woven of hard coral heads and towering sea fan corals on a long mound with crevices for critters to hide. Coral forms a forest backdrop of vibrant hues. that offers shelter to plenty of fish, from blennies peeking from homes to angelfish flitting through the currents. They all share this reef forest between 70 and 80 ft. While not exactly a shallow dive, Chunchacah is often the second dive of the day after diving Maracaibo’s wall.
Keep an eye out for larger residents like nurse sharks resting on the sea floor or eagle rays gliding majestically overhead.
Named after one of the three lagoons in the Punta Sur eco park.
