Follow park rules, respect coral spacing, and account for wind and current moving boats around the reef. Use a guide if you are not already comfortable with local Pacific boat dives.

Huatulco National Park is a protected area with regulated access, entrance fees, and dive rules.
Local Intel For Morro Tejon
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This suits certified divers who are comfortable with a boat-run park dive and a modest-visibility Pacific wall rather than a sheltered training cove.
Freediving
Freediving is secondary here and should be left to calm-day local experts.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is better in calmer neighboring bays; the Morro Tejon area is primarily a scuba and boat-dive target.
