Bite is a boat accessible salt water dive site, located in Old Providence Island, Colombia. The maximum depth is 91-100ft/28-30m. The average visibility is 91-100ft/28-30m.
One descends to 40 ft on a flat, rocky platform, covered by corals, sponges, octocorals. It is crossed by numerous sand beds, remnants of ancient streams which eroded the platform before the rising of the sea level. The platform plunges via a steeply inclined, nearly perpendicular slope, descending to 100 ft where it reaches a sandy bottom, less inclined. On the slope you’ll see sandy fissures alternating with rocky crests covered by stony and soft corals and tubular sponges.
