    This spot in Mar del Plata is primarily a training ground. You’ll likely spend time practicing skills rather than exploring a vibrant reef. We’ve seen White-chinned Petrels overhead and even South Atlantic Elephant-seals resting nearby. It’s best suited for new divers or those refreshing their skills, offering a practical entry point into the water without the distractions of a complex site.

    Safety Notes

    Cold water this month (avg 14°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
