Submarine Baptism and Snorkeling with Sea Lions in Puerto Madryn

The underwater experience is developed in a natural reef no more than 10 meters deep. In the diving area, you will receive instructions on how the equipment works and basic knowledge that you need in order to dive, such as signs, compensation and swimming in the water.

Once you have the equipment, you will start the adaptation in a personalized way, always hand in hand with the Instructor, who will accompany you throughout the experience. Once adapted, you will start going down and make a dive of approximately 20/25 min., exploring the sea bed (Maximum depth: 9 metres) and discovering the flora and fauna of the area. At the end of the dive, you will have your snorkelling gear included to continue enjoying the activity near the park until we return to the shore. Once back on the shore, you will receive a diploma that certifies your immersion.

After that, the snorkeling with sea lions. This tour is the new attraction for our visitors, as it is something that can be experienced only in 3 places in the World! Puerto Madryn is one of them. The area chosen for snorkelling with Sea Lions is Punta Loma, a natural reserve located approximately 15 km away from the city of Puerto Madryn, and getting there will take us 25 minutes by ship. 

All passengers will receive a Snorkelling training course that includes previous practice of snorkelling. It will be carried out at the FOLIAS shipwreck. Once it has been completed and the skills have been learnt, we will approach the protected area of Punta Loma to enjoy this exciting activity. 

Existing regulations allow us to spend an hour in the area with a maximum of 18 people, apart from the Instructor
