Best Season for Scuba Diving and Snorkeling in Sayulita
November to May (Dry Season):
This is the most popular time for snorkeling and diving. The water visibility is excellent (up to 30 meters), and the seas are calm, making it perfect for beginners and experienced divers alike. You’ll encounter tropical fish, sea turtles, rays, and, if you’re lucky, a humpback whale passing by.
June to October (Rainy Season):
Although the rainy season brings warmer waters, visibility may be slightly reduced due to plankton blooms and river runoff. However, this is also when you’re most likely to see larger marine animals like manta rays and whale sharks.
