Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Roca Chungungo

Roca Chungungo is named for the sea otters that frequent this particular spot. The best way to dive the area is to enter the water and go around the rock in a clockwise fashion. The western most extreme is also the deepest for those who need the nitrogen fix. This is a good dive for beginners as orientation is easy. You will see sea lions, sea otters, octopus, crabs, eels, sponges and lots of fish. There is a swim through with some interesting sponges inside. This is a good spot for macro photography. The quickest way to get to the dive site is to leave Caleta Errazuriz (Bolsico) by zodiac. The total time will be about 15 minutes to get there. Another option is Caleta Constitución but the trip is then more than 30 minutes. Anchor on the GPS coordinate. Roca Chungungo is also known as Otter Rock.
