Sashen dive site

Overview

Description

The mystical Sashén reef, a controversial name worth noting. Many call it Chaché, others Saché. Anyway. Beautiful place to dive, where the marine biodiversity is simply amazing. Great variety of corals, and many species of fish. The colors that are observed in this place are without a doubt surprising. To dive in this magical reef you must have some luck. Since the sea conditions must be perfect, that is, no waves and no currents.
