Madryn Buceo

Madryn Buceo is one of the oldest dive centers in the zone, with more than 35 years of experience in Puerto Madryn, which they call the capital of diving in Argentina. As a PADI Resort, they put comfort first and focus on making sure you have a good time out on the water.

Courses, sites and who it suits

The center's headline activity is Snorkeling With Sea Lions, a session lasting roughly 3 hours from USD 120. Divers can explore a spread of local sites, including Loberia Punta Loma, the wrecks Hundimiento Hu Shun Yu #809, Hundimiento Urabain and Hundimiento Albatros, plus Punta Cuevas and Parque Nuevo.

Part of what makes the area special is the wildlife that can appear here — whales, penguins, dolphins and sea lions among them — turning a day out into something unique. With staff speaking Italian, English and Spanish, Madryn Buceo suits travellers who want a relaxed, welcoming base for diving and snorkeling in Patagonia.
