About this dive site
This dive site, Baja Bocarones, offers a rewarding experience for divers comfortable with moderate conditions. Typically, dives are best undertaken when the sea is calm and visibility is good. The bottom gradually slopes from approximately 25 meters down to sand, creating diverse habitat. You'll find a rich ecosystem teeming with marine life, including groupers, schools of horse mackerel, galanas, sunfish, and bream. Moray eels and murions are prevalent along the reef structures. Stingrays and angel sharks can often be spotted in the sandy areas. Pelagic species such as mantas, amberjacks, and occasionally turtles may also be observed. It’s a popular spot for its abundance of life and relatively easy navigation.
