Renowned Snorkeling Areas
Lover’s Beach
Previously known as Playa de Dona Chepa, this beach is a great spot for snorkeling. However, it is not accessible on foot so you can charter our luxury yacht and even visit the point where the sea of Cortez meets the Pacific. However, you should only stick to the Cortez end of the beach for snorkeling as the currents on the other end can be very dangerous to swim in.
Santa Maria Bay
This bay is famous for its clear water and an easy swim from the shore. You can snorkel there amidst the great marine varieties without doing deeper.
