ANIPE
Why dive here
With 33+ marine species recorded in the area - including sperm whales - ANIPE offers some of Mar del Plata's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-21°C, warmest January, February, March.
The ANIPE wreck in Mar del Plata sits shallow, just four metres down. It’s a good spot for newer divers or those looking for an easy second dive, despite being classified as dangerous due to its deteriorated state. The hull has broken down significantly, creating a maze of twisted metal and open spaces that have become home to various small fish and crabs. We found it’s less about a grand ship structure and more about exploring the nooks and crannies of a well-colonised artificial reef.
