About this dive site
North-reef cut paired with Palmero Canyons on Franko charts.
Palmero Cut breaks through the barrier reef north of San Pedro where skippers enter spur-and-groove walls near Palmero Canyons. Jacks and snappers school in the channel while eagle rays cross the sand. It is a longer run from town than Cypress or Paradise moorings.
