BAYONNE
Why dive here
With 33+ marine species recorded in the area - including sperm whales - BAYONNE offers some of Mar del Plata's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-21°C, warmest January, February, March.
The Bayonne wreck sits in just 3 meters of water, making it a good shallow dive, particularly for newer divers. What's left of the old tugboat is now well-colonised by mussels and crabs, with schools of silversides often schooling around the structure. It’s an easy, protected site, often used for introductory dives or a relaxed second dive.
