Piedra Submarino Dive Site (Isla Danzante)

25° 46.0′ N · 111° 14.5′ W · approximate

A submerged rock off Danzante's south tip with short walls, crevices and undercuts that drop away quickly—murex snails, sea stars and staghorn crabs tuck into the ledges.

Practical

Coordinate is approximate: off the south tip of Isla Danzante near La Ventana arch, about 170 m from the OpenStreetMap coastline; no surveyed position was published. Depth not stated by the source; parts of the rock 'drop off quickly' (California Diving News). Current and swell wrap around the south tip—dive in calm conditions with a boat tender. Nearby the C-54 'Agustín Melgar' warship was sunk as an artificial reef south of Puerto Escondido in 2000 (X-Ray Mag). CONANP protected-area fee applies: a Loreto Bay National Park day pass (bracelet) was MX$215 per person in 2025, and the annual Conservation Passport (MX$3,620 in 2025) covers every federal protected area; buy online at descubreanp.conanp.gob.mx or from the rangers at La Dársena in Loreto, and carry proof aboard.
