Aquarium Boca Chica

Aquarium Boca Chica is an easy dive, just a quick boat ride from Boca Chica itself. It’s a shallow spot, topping out at around 10 meters, so a good choice for newer divers or anyone looking for a relaxed time underwater. We've often seen sheephead and graysby poking around the coral blocks, which are interspersed with sandy patches. Keep an eye on those sandy areas; we’ve spotted small rays there more than once, alongside the usual French grunts and doctorfish. Visibility averages 13 meters, which is decent for photography, especially with all the yellowhead jawfish and orangespotted filefish you’ll encounter. It can get a bit of swell, but nothing too dramatic.
