About Ex-Tortuga
A wreck dive. It goes down to 20 m. You get in from a boat. It suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces S: swell from the S reaches it, and wind from the N blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 13°C in April, its coldest month (7 mm semi-dry or a drysuit), and 18°C in September, its warmest (7 mm wetsuit and hood). No town nearby. No bookable town within 60 km: the nearest, Goleta, is 64 km away. Nearest airport: SBA (SBA), 63 km.
