Make incredible explorations!
It is well known that wrecks form artificial reefs and become the habitat of magical marine species … this is the case of the incredible wreck of Puerto Morelos which is 56m long.
Known for its size and its gigantic rooms, in which you will have the chance to venture, the wreck C-56 “Juan Escutia” was donated and sunk by the Mexican Navy in 2000. It was a minesweeper built for the U.S. Navy during World War II. This wreck lies at a depth of 30 meters and has a wonderful surprise… a family of majestic Leopard Eagle Rays live there for part of the year. Admire them dancing around the wreck throughout your dive.
