Diving in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
Located at the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula where the famous "lands end" granite archway plunges into the sea separating the waters of the Sea of Cortez from the Pacific Ocean. Cabo dive information below!! From the nearby docks,, dive boats can quickly transport you to all the local dive sites as well as exploring new ones. Local Dive vessels are capable of comfortably handling 2-25 divers and 50 tanks (ideal for club groups). Outfitted with onboard head and some with a freshwater shower. The Sea of Cortez is considered to be one of the most fertile bodies of water in the world. It supports over 800 species of fish, from cold-water California-related species to tropical fish and pelagics such as whale sharks, giant manta rays and hammerhead sharks. The Cabo San Lucas Bay provides excellent diving conditions. A deep submarine trench closely follows the bay and creates an unusual marine environment that attracts an abundance of marine life. Here the water is warm and the currents are gentle. All types of dive experiences can be satisfied here, from shallow to deep, night to wreck dives, from playful sea lions to the elusive sea horse. Large congregations of fish are seen on the rocky slopes covered with gorgonians and graceful sea fans. Sea lions, turtles, eels and huge gropers are common sights here. |
