The underwater landscape is defined by expansive kelp forests (huiro), which create a complex and sheltered habitat. Within these forests, you can encounter sea lions and various species of sea fans.

In the rocky and kelp-rich areas, look out for picorocos and other invertebrates that cling to the structure of the reef. The ecosystem is diverse, providing plenty of interest for those exploring the seabed.

Macro life and smaller inhabitants are also present throughout the sites, contributing to the overall biodiversity of the Concepción coastal waters.
