About this site
North Wall is a sloping reef wall at Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, covered with rock and rich in hidden life. It is dived at 6 to 27 metres (20 to 90 feet) and rated beginner to intermediate. Dive sites here are all within a five-minute boat ride.
Moray eels, lobsters, pufferfish and scorpionfish tuck themselves into the reef, and seahorses have been spotted along the rocks in the summer months.
