Punta Carrion, also known as Carrion Point, unveils a stunning site with its clear turquoise waters. Diving enthusiasts will be treated to a rich diversity of marine life, from vibrant tropical fish to graceful rays, and the occasional sighting of the harmless white-tip reef shark. Situated on the northern coast of Santa Cruz Island at the entrance of the Itabaca Channel, this spot is accessible only by boat, making it perfect for exploration directly from the dinghy.

With moderate currents, Punta Carrion beckons adventurous divers to discover captivating lava and rock formations alongside an abundance of marine species. Descending to depths of around 20 meters (60 feet), you may encounter white-tip reef sharks, pelagic fish, reef fish, rays, and turtles. Throughout the dive, playful sea lions accompany your journey, making appearances upon entry and during safety stops. Keep a keen eye out, as the occasional sighting of hammerhead sharks adds an extra thrill to the experience. The area between Santa Cruz and Baltra offers two distinct dives, one to the north and the other to the south, ensuring a varied and exciting underwater adventure.
