PLACES OF INTEREST on Los Roques Islands
La Pierda de la Guasa
This is considered to be one of the most fascinating places to dive in the world. Located about half a mile from Gran Roque, divers will find a mountain in the ocean with an amazing variety of marine life. This rocky pinnacle, 35 meters under the sea, rises up to 5 meters under the surface. Although you can dive in this area all year, the best time to do so may be the summer months when the water is warmer.
