Some of the most important coral reefs in Mexico include:

  • The Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano (Veracruz' Reef System), including 17 reefs between the city and port of Veracruz and Anton Lizardo point, in the southern Gulf of Mexico. It is more than 10 million years old.
  • Cabo Pulmo, on Baja California Sur. It has a 25,000 years old reef, and is considered one of the most important coral reefs in the Americas, as it is the only living reef north of the Tropic of Cancer, in the Gulf of California.
  • Island of Cozumel, in the Mexican Caribbean. It is considered the "Crown Jewel" among Mexico's reefs, and is listed among the top 5 best places to practice scuba diving in the world.
