About Lighthouse South - San Pedro
Lighthouse South - San Pedro is a boat-access dive on the east side of San Pedro Island in Mexico, where a sloping boulder field gives way to sand and an easy, all-levels profile. The site is known for the wildlife living over the rocks and on the sandy bottom: sea lions, king angelfish, pufferfish, moray eels, and jawfish all make regular appearances in the site descriptions. It works best as a relaxed island boat dive or snorkel outing when you want a simple route with a lot of life rather than a technical challenge.
