Visitor site · Wolf Island

La Ventana Islet

La Ventana Islet, Wolf: a dive from shallow water down to a point and along a reef wall, with hammerheads, morays, eagle rays and dolphins.

About the site

La Ventana Islet

La Ventana, Spanish for "the window", is a small islet off Wolf Island and one of its dive sites. The dive starts in shallow water, goes down to a rocky point and continues along the wall of a reef, in medium to strong currents.

Its varied relief attracts many different animals. Moray eels, barracuda and schools of reef fish live along the wall, white-tipped reef sharks rest on the ledges, and in the current hammerheads, Galápagos sharks and eagle rays pass by. Dolphins often join the divers, and from about June to November whale sharks are possible. Sea lions and Galápagos fur seals use the rocks of the islet.

From the panga, look for red-footed and Nazca boobies, frigatebirds and tropicbirds on the cliffs of Wolf.

La Ventana is visited only on liveaboard dive cruises, and like the other sites of Wolf it is for experienced divers.
