Description Tour in Gordon Rocks.

Gordon Rocks is an exciting point of any diving experience in the Galapagos Islands. This is the top of a submerged cone at the northeast end of Santa Cruz Island. It is sometimes referred to as "the washing machine" for good reason. The northern rocks and their surroundings are what remains of a caldera. Under the water there are submerged pinnacles and a channel between which very strong currents are created, there is no depth, so this site is an advanced dive site

Location: Gordon Rocks is one of the best dive sites in the central islands. It is an eroded crater at the top of a cone. Near the east coast of the island of Santa Cruz, 2 dive sites located 45 minutes from the Itabaca Channel (north side of Santa Cruz Island).

Conditions of the place: This rock formation is a world-renowned site for intermediate and advanced divers, due to the strong currents and waves.

Description of North Seymour

The North Seymour topography consists of gradual steps off the coast of the island with a proximity of 8 meters to a beautiful rock reef, before reaching the sandy bottom at 16 - 18 meters. The daily Galapagos Diving Seymour tour offers the opportunity to swim with many white and black tip reef sharks, as well as being a favorite resting place for large numbers of green sea turtles. Although Seymour does not have the notoriety of hammerhead sharks. Large schools of barracuda, snapper and other reef fish are also in abundance, and the rocky reef is a great place to look for the mostly well-camouflaged octopus. Eagle rays glide through the channel along the sand, occasionally accompanied by devils and manta rays.

Location: North of Santa Cruz Island, 2 excellent dive sites located 30 minutes from the Itabaca Channel (north side of Santa Cruz Island).

Conditions of the place: For all levels of divers, although sometimes there can be strong currents. Reef platforms with a diversity of species.
