Piscina de Francisqui

Also known as: Francisqui pool · La Piscinita

The Francisqui pool is a natural basin enclosed by coral reef at the Francisqui cays, east of Gran Roque. Boats from Gran Roque take about ten minutes, then a walk of some 300 m across the cay leads to the shore entry. With about 5 m of water and no current it is used for first dives and by children and snorkellers. Barracuda, octopus and many tropical fish live in the reef ring. It can be busy at times.
