Diving
The Zapata Peninsula is an idyllic playground for ecotourists and scuba divers. All the water surrounded this protective area, will be your diving zone for the week. So, you imagine what we are talking about, and count on us that we´ll continue our major efforts for more protection of the marine environment. Zapata area will be your base for the week, diving with fast diving skiffs from the live aboard Georgiana. This territory is characterized by both the presence of considerable peat depth and the fact that it is a low, flat area from the viewpoint of relief. Top height above sea level is only about 10 meters, while top depth in below-sea-level coastal zones is as follows: 2 meters in the salt-marsh area and from 1-600 meters in the sea coastal zone.
