Sea Lions near Puerto Madryn. (27 K) |
Puerto Madryn
It is located on the banks of the Golfo Nuevo with hotels from 4 to 1
stars and it is considered the capital of submarine sports in Argentina.
In their 3 km long coast the water is of great transparency, and that
is the reason why it is visited by people from all over the world. Dozens
of instructors have installed their small cabins on the beach to attract
tourists. Experts and beginners can give it a try. The cold water demands
a neoprene suit. A boat will take the future divers to a platform. During
this trip they learn the submarine signs and in the platform they are
given the oxygen tanks, the weights and the fins. Each diver will be accompanied
by an instructor during the 20 minute long submarine walk. Beginners will
not go deeper than 10m and there they will encounter fish of all colours
which will come close to them:sea stars, hedgehogs, jellyfishes.
