Keyuk
Why dive here
With 33+ marine species recorded in the area - including sperm whales - Keyuk offers some of Mar del Plata's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-21°C, warmest January, February, March.
Keyuk is a shallow wreck, sitting at just 8 meters, making it quite accessible. It’s a broken vessel, but we still find sections of the hull and superstructure worth exploring. Look closely and you’ll spot a surprising amount of invertebrate life, small crabs, and nudibranchs making homes in the crevices. This site is a good pick for newer divers or those who enjoy longer bottom times exploring a piece of history.
