To submerge in the waters of the “aquarium of the world”, as Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortes, is an experience so wonderful it seems unreal. It is a fantastic journey through deep canyons and submarine mountains that are the habitat of approximately 800 fish species.

Those diving in these waters privileged by nature can come face to face with huge stingrays, friendly sea lions and amusing dolphins, though also with fierce hammerhead sharks, schools of tuna fish and groupers, and even with a huge whale if there is any luck.

It is possible to leave aside the scuba gear and to adventure on snorkelling due to the clarity of its waters. You only need flippers, a mask and a snorkel for this activity to fully enjoy the submarine adventure.

SCUBA DIVING IN LOS CABOS

The sea of Los Cabos is simply a dream come true for those seeking to scrutinise and investigate the submarine world, thanks to its transparent waters and its great variety of fishes of bright colours and curious shapes.

The most daring divers can go off shore and into the darkness of the submarine caves. There is an impressive cascade of sand flowing onto the seabed, and gardens of black coral housing a great marine population in the vicinity of the port of Cabo San Lucas.
