Las Cadenas Dive Site — Dominican Republic
About Las Cadenas
Unique chain-like coral formations cascade down a gentle sandy slope, creating an otherworldly landscape that comes alive during night dives when octopuses, lobsters, and sleeping parrotfish emerge. By day, the site features large barrel sponges and garden eels swaying in the current. Located near Bayahibe, it offers easy access and excellent conditions for underwater photography.
