Cozumel
World famous reef that will not leave you indifferent.
Located directly in front of Playa Del Carmen, this island is an amazing spot regarding the beauty of the reef, the clarity of the water and the marine life you can encounter such as turtles, nurse sharks, eagle rays and many others.
In addition to its deep walls, most sites in Cozumel are also known for being drift dives. Let yourself be carried away by the current while enjoying the beauty of the landscape that Jean-Jacques Cousteau himself has designated as being ‘one of the best places in the world to dive’.
Akumal
Known as “the place of the turtles” in Maya language, this is THE place to dive with these adorable creatures !
Not only is this dive site very rich, but it is also a real paradise for any turtle lover. You will also appreciate its topography grouping a succession of small canyons full of marine life.
The depth of this bay oscillating from 10 to 25 meters, you benefit from easy diving conditions, accessible to all levels of training and an ideal spot for an initiation.
Puerto Morelos
Few kms away from Playa Del Carmen is located the village of Puerto Morelos and its magnificent wreck.
This small village shelters in its waters the ship C56, former property of the American army, measuring 50 meters long and admirably preserved since its intentional immersion in 2000.
The wreck resting at a depth of 30m, this dive is reserved to divers with a level 2 or equivalent (advanced). It also offers the possibility for the most daring divers to pass through the vessel. In terms of marine life, it is common to observe a school of eagle rays progressing around the area.
A few meters away from the wreck stands an animated reef. The 2nd dive is usually made there to explore the wonders that surround this underwater relic.
