About this spot

Blue Diamond is a dive site centered near Punta Evans in the Archipelago of Saint Andrés, Providence and Saint Catalina off Colombia's Caribbean coast. The site sits outside marine protected areas, making access straightforward for visiting divers. Local species observations have been logged at the site, and community video records document the underwater environment, giving divers a preview of what to expect beneath the surface. Year-round diving is possible at Blue Diamond, meaning you can plan a trip during your preferred season without worrying about seasonal closures. The site draws divers interested in Caribbean reef ecosystems and the unique biodiversity of Colombia's island archipelago. While detailed depth and visibility data remain variable, the site's documented marine life and consistent diver activity suggest reliable conditions. Note that coral bleaching remains under watch status in this region, reflecting broader climate concerns affecting Caribbean reefs. Divers should follow reef-safe practices: avoid touching corals, use reef-safe sunscreen, and minimize bottom contact. The presence of community video documentation means other divers have successfully explored this site and shared their experiences online.
