Before you arrive

Access notes

Guided shore access through a current Ilo-area operator; reconfirm parking, land access, entry, exit and swell before diving. Book with a qualified local professional and reconfirm certification, route, depth, gas, entry/exit, permissions, wildlife rules and emergency plan. The displayed coordinate is deliberately approximate and must never be used as an entry point, mooring, structure position or navigation waypoint.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Cold water, shore break, surge, slippery rocks, kelp entanglement, variable visibility and remote-response limitations.

At the site

Facilities and support

Current southern Peru operators advertise guided shore/boat diving, rentals, air fills, training and equipment support; confirm oxygen, communications and remote-response arrangements.

Independent resource notice

This record is a starting point for independent verification. Access, closures, moorings, weather, currents, depth, visibility, operator availability, and site conditions can change without notice. Confirm current information with the responsible operator, property owner, managing authority, or another qualified local source before planning or attempting a dive.
