Why it works

Close to the dive shops

Dive shops cluster around Centro and two marinas are nearby, so most boat, dive and snorkel departures are a short ride away.

What's out there

Snorkel with the sea lion colony at Los Islotes, explore Isla Espíritu Santo (a protected park and UNESCO site), and dive reefs, walls and the Fang Ming wreck.

Seasonal giants

Regulated whale shark swims in the bay, roughly late fall into spring, plus mobula rays in season. Check current dates with operators.

Back at the house

Rinse off in the pool, cook in the kitchen and walk to dinner on the Malecón.

Dive groups welcome

Four private rooms plus the two-bedroom Ocean Suite, so a dive group can stay together. See group stays.
