Dive-site story
Situated along the rocky coastline of the Los Cabos tourist corridor, Blow Hole takes its name from surface spray forced through natural shoreline crevices. Underwater, granite boulder fields, canyons, and swim-throughs create a dynamic topography shaped by ocean currents. The site serves as a frequent waypoint for passing pelagics moving between the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez.
Rugged granite rock formations with natural crevices and swim-throughs
Schools of mobula rays frequently passing along the outer reef edge
Dense aggregations of reef fish sheltered among rocky overhangs
