About Cozumel Diving:  The diving around Cozumel consists of mostly drift diving, with incredible underwater pinnacles, walls and
canyons lined with coral. It is one of the better known dive spots in the world. The expansive reefs serve as home to sea
turtles, nurse sharks, hundreds of species of fishes, corals, sponges.
About Playa del Carmen A
paradise in the caribbean... Playa del Carmen is home to alabaster beaches, beautiful coral reefs, warm water, gentle surf
and peaceful vacations. Less visited than Cozumel, Playa del Carmen certainly is equal in beauty, but is much more peaceful.
Ocean Diving: The diving
around Playa is warm and wonderful! Leaving
from Playa you will have access to the great
Mayan barrier reef, the 2nd largest in the world. This area is home to a variety of large fauna such as sea turtles, morays,
puffer fish... down to the tiny Christmas tree worms and their reef relatives. Beautiful sea life in crystal clear waters
and the water temperature is a warm a balmy ~ 80 degrees in the summer, so you can leave the drysuit at home!
