Q: WHAT IS THE WATER TEMPERATURE IN NUEVO VALLARTA?
A: During the summer months, the water is bathtub warm, approaching 85°F.  During the winter months, it cools down significantly, and you often find temperatures dipping into the high 60s  and low 70s.

Q: WHAT IS THE VISIBILITY LIKE?
A: The best visibility is found during the summer months, when visibility can reach 100-130 feet.  During the winter months, you'll find it to be about 15-60 feet.

Q: ARE THERE FISH?
A: Yes, there are a lot of fish to be seen.  The Marietas Islands are a nationally protected marine preserve - there is a lot of sea life both above and beneath the surface.

Q: CAN I DIVE FROM THE BEACH?
A: Due to the nice, sandy beaches of Nuevo Vallarta, you'll have to take a boat to reach any good scuba diving spots.

Q: I'M ONLY DIVING ONE DAY - WHICH SITE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
A: Tough one - depends on your abilities and timeframe.  For the average diver, we recommend the Marietas Islands.  There are dives for all skill levels, and a huge variety of marine life.  If you're short on time, Los Arcos is the closest to shore.  If you're an experienced diver looking for pelagics, we recommend El Morro.  For lunch on a beach and relaxing in the sun, Majahuitas is a good choice. 

Q: ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?
A: On rare occasions, it may be necessary for your divemaster to switch dive sites due to issues with visibility or water conditions.  All dive shops in Puerto Vallarta reserve this right.  It is your dive team's first responsibility to ensure your safety and well being, and they take this responsibility very seriously.  We thank you for your understanding.
