Bartolomé is one of the archipelago’s most iconic islands, famous for its lunar-like volcanic landscape and its famous rock pinnacle. But the most surprising thing is underwater: an underwater environment teeming with volcanic tunnels, coral gardens, and active marine life. Diving here means immersing yourself among unique geological formations and constantly moving creatures.
