All about Five Fingers Islet dive site
Depth max
21 m
Diver level
Novice
Visibility
to 16 m
Five Fingers is often talked about as a more dynamic dive day for San Cristóbal—current can build, and the site can feel like a moving window onto the food chain. Even when the visibility isn’t perfect, the action can be close enough to keep the dive feeling busy
What to see
Schools of fish are frequently mentioned here, along with marine iguanas feeding underwater in the area. Wahoo, wrasse, and jacks are commonly listed among the faster movers that may cruise through when conditions line up
When To Go Diving
It’s dived year-round, with December to May generally warmer and mid-year months cooler. Current is a defining feature and can be stronger at certain times of day; visibility shifts with the same tide-and-plankton rhythm that shapes much of the archipelago
