Wreck And Reef Dive In Cancun
Cancun
Description
These are two of the best dive sites in the area and are perfect for the most experienced divers.
You will dive in the clear waters of Cancun to a max 85ft depth on the famous wrecks "C-58", also known as General Anaya or "C-55", also known as Juan de La Barrera.
Both shipwrecks are very popular among local divers and were former US navy vessels built for the WWII. They were sunk purposely to create artificial reefs in the waters of Cancun.
The diving sites are also frequently visited by barracudas, groupers, and manta rays. In the winter season you could see dozens of eagle rays dancing around the wreck.

Swimming with the whale sharks was worth every penny! No sunscreen so wear a swim shirt or rent a wetsuit. Our Captain Solomon was fabulous and our guide Nano was fun, energetic and did everything he could to make this a magical experience for everyone on board. We were the first pick up and last drop off which meant for a super long day but highly recommend!!

We took the whale shark watching tour; we had a fantastic day with tons of sharks. Truly a dream. I would recommend it a thousand times over.

This was an amazing excursion. The Captain knew right where to drop you in so you can swim along the whale shark. If you hesitate, you ok be behind. The captain’s mate did a wonderful job of orienting you once you jumped in the water and he took amazing photos and video. I definitely recommend Gluup for this trip.
