Come and play in the “Aquarium of the World”.  Experience the underwater beauty of the Sea of Cortez, one of the world’s richest marine ecosystems.  This prolific fish, invertebrate and marine mammal habitat provides world famous incredible opportunities for snorkeling, diving, and underwater photography.
La Ventana is centrally located a mere 8.5 miles across the channel from the fantastic diving of Cerralvo Island.  Cerralvo is the southernmost island in the Cortez and offers divers of all skill levels a chance to explore its pristine reefs, pinnacles, bays, and beaches and the incredible marine life that inhabits them.  In addition to Cerralvo, the local coast near La Ventana offers many incredible sites that are a short panga or van ride away. The beach is a great introductory training site for certification classes and snorkeling. La Ventana is the perfect base camp for snorkeling and SCUBA adventure, education, and fun.
