Las Cuevas Dive Site (Acapulco)

16° 49.2′ N · 99° 54.9′ W · approximate

Arches, tunnels and stone passages full of schooling mackerel and amberjack, with octopus, olive ridley turtles and seahorses tucked into the rock.

Practical

Approximate: the site's position is not published in the sources found; it is set off the southwest side of Isla La Roqueta only to plot near the island's dive area. Quién (2017) describes it but gives no depth: ask the operator about depth and current before booking, and dive it only with a local guide. Go with an Acapulco operator from Caleta.
