The Quita Sueño (Quitasueño) Bank is an elongated, carbonate bank structure located 70 km northeast from Providencia's northernmost reefs and 80 km west from the Serrana Bank. The bank measures around 40 km in length (north to south) and is up to 10 km across. Much of the formation lies in relatively deep waters (particularly in the southwest), with only the eastern reefs forming an emergent barrier-like crest upon which the sea swells break.
