CONCRETO 1
Why dive here
With 33+ marine species recorded in the area - including sperm whales - CONCRETO 1 offers some of Mar del Plata's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-21°C, warmest January, February, March.
Dropping onto Concreto 1, you hit the top of the wreck at a comfortable 11 metres. It’s an old fishing vessel, nothing massive, but enough hull and superstructure left to make for an interesting poke around. What we really enjoy here are the schools of hake and groupers that have made it home; they’re often just hanging out in the darker sections. You’ll find plenty of crabs scuttling over the metal, too. This site is a great pick for newer wreck divers or those looking for a relaxed second dive.
