We will sail to the dive site called Bahia de Darwin where we will do our first dive of the day. The dive guide will give them the briefing and later they will jump into the sea. The dive lasts approximately 45 minutes. In this dive you will be able to observe sea lions, reef sharks, bat fish, rays, puffer fish, barracudas, turtles, sea urchin, sea star, moray eels, lobsters, octopus, etc. Once the dive is over, the passengers will return to the boat to enjoy snacks and drinks. They will have a break of approximately 1 hour before their second dive.
They will sail for about 15 minutes until they reach the second dive site called Carawa. A ship that was wrecked approximately 100 years ago, exported different products to continental Ecuador. Here you can observe different species, since over time a large reef has formed around the hull of the ship. Here the passengers will prepare with the diving equipment and will also listen to the briefing by the diver guide.
