El Vencedor (Wreck)

★★★★★ (552)

The Vencedor is a fun wreck dive in Cabo Pulmo. This ship was a tuna trawler that sunk in the early 1980s after hitting the reef. It’s now become a great artificial reef surrounded by sand, schooling fish, and lots of sharks!

You’ll see lots of schooling snapper and grunts, large grouper, tons of pufferfish, moray and garden eels, and peacefull bull sharks.
