Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Huatulco in Oaxaca, Medregal Point consists of a rugged submerged rocky ridge extending out into open water. Ocean currents wash past the point, drawing pelagic species and schools of jacks toward the rocky boulders and crevices that define the Pacific seabed here.
Schooling yellowtail and amberjacks sweeping past the offshore point
Massive granite boulders carpeted in barnacles and hard corals
Frequent encounters with spotted eagle rays and green sea turtles cruising the drop-off
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Winter and spring bring calmer sea conditions and improved visibility along the Oaxaca coast.
