Snorkel areas

4 places

El Sargento north reef

Snorkel, shore, El Sargento

Walk-in snorkel north of town. Rocky reef with surprising visibility in winter. Park where the road dead-ends.

Ensenada de Muertos

Snorkel + dive area

Bay with multiple sites accessible by boat.

La Reina (giant manta site)

Dive + snorkel site, Cerralvo Island area (boat trip)

Renowned for resident giant manta rays. Most operators visit. Conditions-dependent.

Punta Arena reef

Snorkel, shore, Outside town (16 km)

Shore-entry snorkel on calm-water days. Decent fish life, occasional turtles. Best at slack tide, mornings before the wind picks up.
