Description
Ready to enjoy your dives in one of the best diving destinations in the world?
The group gets on the road about 6:00 AM and starts heading up the East Cape. Once we exit San Jose Del Cabo, we will travel north to La Ribera, and then south to Cabo Pulmo. The drive takes approximately two hours from Cabo San Lucas. We plan to enter the water between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM.
Local regulations allow for a maximum of 50 minutes bottom time per site. We normally conclude the diving activities around 1:00 PM and then have lunch at one of the local restaurants. Arrival time back in Cabo San Lucas is usually between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM.
The Cabo Pulmo National Park is one of the most important areas of the Sea of Cortez region. This importance lies in the large number of marine species that inhabit the place and in which the only living coral reef in the northernmost part of the Americas is located in its waters, it is the only hard reef in the entire peninsula of Baja California .
Thanks to the initiative and effort, mainly from the community, scientists, academics, civil organizations and municipal, state and federal governments, a marine reserve of 7,111 hectares was created on June 6, 1995, with the National Park category. The protection and recovery of the marine community and the reef has allowed the return of migratory species such as the whale shark, giant blankets, humpback whales, sea turtles and sharks.
In your dives you will feel overwhelmed by the great coral reefs, the famous schools of jacks, sea lions, different tropical fish and Bull Sharks that live in the marine reserve.
The average dive depth in Cabo Pulmo’s most interesting sites varies between 55-70 feet. There are also some very shallow coral dives that are of great interest, and the Bahia de los Frailes site have dives of more than 100 feet.
The season with better visibility is during summer and autumn, mainly between July and November.
