The island is owned by the state and is the facility for the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology, part of the University of Hawai‘i. It is the only laboratory built on a coral reef.

Roca Partida ("broken rock" in Spanish): This stark volcanic pinnacle rises from the depths of the Pacific 200 miles (320 km) off the tip of the Baja Peninsula. This is truly wild diving, with powerful swells, big currents, and large marine species at one of the most isolated dive sites in the world.

2010.01.07 The Boiler

The Boiler is on the southwest side of the San Benedicto island -- a massive pinnacle that begins at about 20' and descends in steps to 160'+. Panamic green moray eels and lobsters are present in common sightings. This is one of the busiest spots for the Pacific manta to be cleaned of parasites. The Clarion angelfish is the site's most energetic cleaner and mantas, sometimes three or four mantas at a time, come in to be cleaned. Over the years the mantas have become incredibly comfortable with divers, and they view divers with a sense of curiosity and purpose. Manta encounters may last 20, 30 or more minutes with the mantas passing within a foot or so of divers.

2011.01.06 The Canyon

On the southeast side of San Benedicto Island is "The Canyon". This site consists of a horseshoe or box canyon-shaped group of pinnacles. The offshore side drops to 180'+ and the inshore floor is around 100'. The dive consists of making your way to the lookout over deep water at 70-80', and watching for marine life to pass by. Schools of hammerhead sharks are commonly seen here. Divers are treated to close encounters with mantas during their safety stops.
