Cabo San Lucas offers you
outstanding diving in two oceans. The waters in the Sea of Cortez are tropical
while those off the pacific coast are more sub-tropical.
The sea of Cortez is host to giant whale sharks, manta rays, schools of
hammerhead sharks, marlin, tuna, eel and other large pelagic fish. Combined with
the interesting geographic layout of the underwater formations, this results in
a variety of diving conditions that are rated amongst the best in the world.

Water temperatures are generally comfortable enough to warrant wearing of a 1/4" wetsuit all year round.
