In and around Puerto Lopez the topography of the coast
is essentially made up of rock with massive Coral Reef Patches and sand.
Over the rock bottoms, we can find coral fans, Gorgonian
fans and different plant life in a variety of colours. Their are many
different species of fish in big groups like: angelfish, butterfly fish,
trumpet fish, flute fish, jacks, sea basses, puffer fish, balloon fish,
morays, snappers, trigger fish, parrot fish, scorpion fish, manta rays,
guitar rays and white tip sharks.
We can also see some green marine turtles, different
species of sea stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. Also sited here
are orca whales and whale sharks.
