Dive Overview
Diving in Mexico offers an impressive mix of environments, from the Pacific Ocean to the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of California. In the Sea of Cortez, often called the "Aquarium of the World," divers encounter sea lions, giant schools of fish, mobula rays, whale sharks, and seasonal migrations of humpback and gray whales. Farther offshore at the Revillagigedo Islands (Socorro), the big draw is close interactions with giant manta rays, dolphins, and several shark species, including hammerheads and silky sharks.
