Agua Verde South Anchorage Beach Snorkel
25° 30.9′ N · 111° 4.0′ W · approximate
Rocky reef edges a short swim from the white beach of Agua Verde's south anchorage—the snorkel Blue Pacific's rally fleet rated 'excellent'.
Practical
Coordinate is approximate: just off the village beach on the south side of the bay (OpenStreetMap 'Agua Verde' beach way centre 25.51504, -111.06974), checked in-water against the OpenStreetMap coastline; individual reef heads are not mapped. Anchor in the south anchorage and swim in; watch for pangas launching from the beach. Spearfishing has given mixed results here (Practical Sailor). Reefs guard the southern approach to the bay—enter in good light.
Best for
An easy swim-from-the-boat snorkel
Season
Calm mornings; avoid in a strong norther
