Boat access and marine-park logistics are easiest through a local dive center.
Middle Wall is a deep Cabo San Lucas bay wall where a steep reef face falls into blue water near the Pelican Rock side of the marine park. It suits certified divers looking for a boat-accessed profile with straightforward logistics, a cleaner open-water feel, and regular chances to see groupers, rays, frogfish, nudibranchs, and occasional sharks.

Year-round; warm summer months are usually the easiest for comfort and visibility.
Typical Conditions
Usually calm to mildly moving bay water with a quick boat ride and a deeper wall that can feel open and blue as you descend.
