Colombia Shallows

Also known as: Columbia Shallows · Colombia Shallow · Columbia Shallow

Coral heads rise a few metres from the sand and are covered in brain and lettuce coral and colourful sponges. Because few boats bring beginners this far south, turtles and fish are relatively undisturbed. Cleaning stations, schools of grunts and sergeant majors, seahorses and small crabs are typical. Fresh water from the nearby Colombia lagoon sometimes reduces the visibility.
