Plongée à Cabo San Lucas — Mexico
Cabo San Lucas sits where the Pacific Ocean collides with the Sea of Cortez — what Jacques Cousteau called 'the world's aquarium.' The iconic sand falls cascade over an underwater cliff edge, sea lions play at Pelican Rock, and mobula ray aggregations darken the water in autumn. Resort-heavy topside and direct US flights make it supremely accessible.
