Puerto Madryn is Argentina’s diving capital. Cold water, variable visibility and abundant marine life: sea lions, octopuses, silversides and, in season, southern right whales in the Golfo Nuevo. Classic sites like Punta Cuevas, Punta Loma and the bay’s wrecks make up most commercial dives.
Best visibility runs March to June. A drysuit is not mandatory but recommended outside summer.
