About this site

The smallest yet most action-packed of the Revillagigedo Islands. This guano-covered rock pinnacle rising from the deep attracts extraordinary concentrations of pelagic life. Divers can circumnavigate the entire pinnacle in a single dive, encountering sharks, mantas, and massive schools of fish.
