Diving for certified divers in Cancun and the Riviera Maya

What you can dive here with your certification

The Mexican Caribbean has an advantage almost no destination offers: in a single week you can dive an underwater museum, a wreck, a wall reef, freshwater cenotes and bull sharks. Without changing base.

With Open Water you already have access to most of the catalogue: MUSA, the Punta Cancun and Puerto Morelos reefs, the C-56 wreck, night diving, Cozumel drift dives, cavern cenotes like Dos Ojos or 7 Bocas, and bull shark observation in season.

Advanced opens the deep sites: The Pit and its hydrogen sulphide cloud, Zapote and the Hell's Bells, the Cancun wreck at twenty-four metres and the bull shark feeding dive.

What we ask before you get in the water

Two things, and neither is negotiable. First, a valid certification — bring your physical or digital card. Second, a dive within the last six months. If it has been longer, no problem: we run a same-day refresher in shallow water so you go in with fresh skills and correct weighting.

This is not bureaucracy. A diver three years out of the water dropping straight into a deep cenote is a risk to themselves and the group. Half an hour of review solves it.

How we choose the site each day

We do not publish a fixed site calendar, because the sea does not work that way. Every morning we look at wind, current, swell and visibility, and decide. A strong norther closes Punta Cancun but leaves the cenotes perfect. Flat seas in Cozumel are the chance to run Palancar instead of a shallow reef.

More than twelve years reading this sea is part of what you are booking alongside the tank.
