Isla del Tesoro Reef (Rosario North)

10° 14.1′ N · 75° 44.6′ W

A small, isolated islet and its fringing reef standing alone north of the main Rosario group, with a light on the islet - clear water and coral away from the day-boat crowds.

Practical

OSM maps the reef here, the islet at 10.23505, -75.73909 and the Isla del Tesoro light at 10.23551, -75.74062. Spanish Wikipedia: Tesoro stands relatively isolated to the north. A charter itinerary sails past it between San Bernardo and Isla Grande. No official anchoring waypoint is published - treat it as a daytime stop in calm weather, anchor in sand only, and keep well clear of the reef in any northerly swell.
