Dive into Los Anegados, one of Puerto Vallarta's underwater jewels
Discover the hidden wonders of Los Anegados! Abundant with large-scale marine life, including dolphins, rays, sharks, and turtles, this underwater paradise is ideal for experienced divers looking for adventure.
Nestled halfway between the renowned Marietas Islands and El Morro, Los Anegados presents a transition from shallow banks to profound depths. The gentle shallows of Los Anegados might give the impression of simplicity. However, seasoned divers are sometimes challenged as strong currents make their presence felt, and the north winds occasionally roughen the ocean's surface.
But the challenge is worth it. During your private scuba dive in Los Anegados, you'll see a stunning underwater mosaic. From the graceful rays and elusive eels that inhabit the shallows, the marine life here is both diverse and vibrant. And, if you're lucky, the occasional manta ray or nurse shark might glide by!
