Teresa Rosa
Why dive here
With 33+ marine species recorded in the area - including sperm whales - Teresa Rosa offers some of Mar del Plata's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-21°C, warmest January, February, March.
The Teresa Rosa wreck sits in Mar del Plata’s shallow waters, making it an easy dive right off the beach. We’re talking three metres deep, tops, so it’s perfect for those wanting a relaxed dive without much fuss. This old sailing vessel is pretty broken up, but its remains still provide plenty of nooks for small fish and crabs to hide. It's a fun spot for newer divers to get a feel for wreck diving or for anyone looking for a quick, interesting dip close to shore. You won’t find anything huge here, but the light plays nicely through the scattered timbers, highlighting the resident blennies and gobies.
