Located on an island in the Gulf of Chiriqui, Morro Negrito boasts some of the best spearfishing in the world. Morro Negrito is situated near a mainland coastline that has miles of mangroves. These mangroves feed the smallest fish and therefore the larger ones as well -the food chain is complete. You will find many different types of inshore fish near Morro Negrito such as sierra, dorado, red snapper, small Yellowfin tuna, barracuda, Snook and many other species. The waters of Morro Negrito are bursting with life and some of the most diverse catches of your life.
Morro Negrito is a great location to experience a wide variety of dive points. At Morro Negrito there is flexibility on dive preference based on weather and experience. Most of our dives from Morro Negrito are from 30' to 80' in depth.
We use a 24' panga with a 60HP Yamaha. The boat is equipped with a handheld VHF radio, compass, first aid kit/trauma pack, compass, GPS and caseta. All of our radio equipment is modified to have a range of 100 miles. Safety is a priority.
We only accommodate up to 6 spearos per boat. The reason for the group size is due to the fact that we need to keep an eye on everyone in the water. Also, diving is much better when there aren't too many people crowding the water.
