Galapagos Islands
The dream was beginning to come true: a long awaited trip, an adventure to the far seas of Ecuador. It would start in Panama, and continue on to Guayaquil and Isla de Baltra, our final destination in the heart of the Galapagos Islands.
Gray whales in Los Cabos
Los Cabos is remarkable, geographically speaking, because it is located right where the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez meet. Jacques Cousteau, the renowned diver, as well as other adventurers, have described it as one of the world’s richest and most biodiverse regions. It is know as the “World’s Aquarium."
Diving in Mystical Cenotes
Even though the exploration of Yucatan’s caves and cenotes (sinkholes) dates back to the last century, it wasn’t until recently that this activity could be done efficiently. This new development is the result of the invention of sophisticated diving equipment that allows divers to spend longer periods under water.
Swimming with Whale Sharks
Year after year, in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, we find one of the most marvelous marine animals with which man has had contact. It is the enormous whale shark, the biggest fish on the planet.
Diving in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo
Following the Ruta del Sol (Route of the Sun) along the Mexican Pacific coast in the state of Guerrero, we find yet another development of Fonatur (Fondo Nacional de Fomento al Turismo, a governmental agency devoted to promoting tourism), a place which, until recently, was a small fishing village and now has become a top grade tourism destination known worldwide as Ixtapa- Zihuatanejo.
Diving on sunken ships
The more plankton there is in the sea, the better chances there are to enjoy a great diving experience. Manzanillo is no exception to this rule, plunging into its warm waters you will encounter a great variety of creatures, for instance, lovely sea horses, engaging balloon fish and highly prized lobsters.
Corals
Corals grow and live mainly in the Pacific Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico and the Mexican Caribbean. They are one of the most complex, diverse and underrated species on the planet.
La paz
Mexicans are very fortunate. We live in a country of great biodiversity that has extensive coasts on the Gulf of Mexico, the great Pacific Ocean, the transparent Caribbean and the bountiful Sea of Cortez.
Vallarta
In the turquoise waters of Mexico’s Caribbean there are countless places filled with marine flora and wildlife. However, on the Pacific side, Mexico has other beautiful submarine spots where, unlike the Gulf area, there is the opportunity of observing larger, more diverse aquatic wildlife.
