2 Log Reports
Challenging dive site
Punt Canon is Curacao's most easterly dive site. It's the ideal dive site to make the most nicest drift dives along a beautiful reef, overgrown with corals. Punt Canon has a shallow plateau where corals, file fish and tarpons can be seen. The plateau ends at 10 meters depth and then slopes steeply to 30 meters. The nutrient-rich waters from Point Canon attracts large groupers, stingrays and sometimes reef sharks.
