El Bajo

Marisla Seamount, also known as "El Bajo", is located about 8 miles north-northeast of La Paz, Mexico. There are three underwater peaks arrayed three hundred yards, 120°-300°; at depths of 83 ft, 52 ft, and 69 ft.

Marisla Seamount was named after dive-cruise ship Marisla II, formerly USCG Cutter Columbine, owned by Maria Luisa Adcock and Richard M. Adcock. Richard was the first known sport diver, using SCUBA gear, to dive on the Seamount in 1957. Adcock began making commercial sport diving cruises to the sea mount utilizing Marisla and continued the dive business with Marisla II from 1968 through 2009. Marisla and Marisla II have both been scrapped.
