About this site
San Carlos is a coastal town on the Gulf of California in the Mexican state of Sonora, near Guaymas. Diving in the area takes place along the rocky points and small islands off this stretch of desert coastline, where the water is shielded somewhat by the Baja peninsula across the gulf. Sites here are generally rated beginner, making the area accessible to divers of most experience levels.
