MOSQUERA

North of Santa Cruz Mosquera is an islet that emerges from the sea between Seymour and Baltra island. A sandy bottom at 15-18 meters is scattered with curious garden eels and pelagic species as well as an underwater wall flowing downwards from the shallows into the deep.

Upon our current schedule Mosquera can be combined with the following dive sites on the same dive day:

• Gordon Rocks
• Seymour Channel
• Daphne

Keep an eye out for hammer head sharks and the garden eels that pop their heads out of the ground and disappear down their burrow as you approach! Also  found in the area are black tip and white tip reef sharks, sea lions, turtles, barracudas, sting rays, eagle rays, mobula rays, Galápagos eels and a variety of reef fish and invertebrates.
