Bajo del Diablo near Manuel Antonio is a beginner-friendly submerged reef on Costa Rica's central Pacific coast. Unlike its more advanced namesake at Caño Island, this accessible seamount rises to shallow depths and features a rocky plateau covered with small corals and marine growth. The reef attracts schools of grunts, snappers, and jacks, while white-tip reef sharks and stingrays rest on the surrounding sandy bottom. The manageable conditions and reliable marine life encounters make this Bajo del Diablo a popular dive for operators based in the Quepos and Manuel Antonio area.
