Why dive here
With 77+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, hammerhead sharks, humpback whales, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - BEATITA DE HUMAY offers some of Mancora & North Coast's richest wreck diving. Water sits around 24°C.
Dive the Beatita de Humay and you're dropping onto the remains of an old fishing vessel, sitting upright in about 10 meters of water. It's not a massive wreck, but the hull is still largely intact, and you can swim through a few open sections, peeking into what used to be the engine room. Over time, the metal has become a home for small groups of fish, with a good number of grunt and snapper schooling around the stern. We’ve even spotted a few moray eels tucked into the darker crevices. It’s a straightforward dive, well-suited for newer wreck divers or anyone looking for a relaxed exploration of a shallow artificial reef.
