    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Anegada Rock offers a straightforward rocky dive, typical of the Sea of Cortez's coastline. You'll find a decent scattering of reef fish here, along with the occasional moray eel tucked into crevices. It's a solid choice for a second dive of the day, or for newer divers looking to get comfortable in the local conditions without too much current. We'd suggest it for an easy, pleasant dive rather than seeking out major pelagics.
