Scuba Club Cozumel is a family run hotel and dive operation with incredibly abundant and tasty food




One of the most amazing dives I have ever done was in the Mayan Riviera near Tulum called Dos Ojos. Dos Ojos (two eyes in Spanish) is a cenote or cavern dive that, to me, comes as close to a cave dive as one can get without cheap hotel deals the training and the redundancy systems required for that type of technical diving. Read more on Dos Ojos...
nothing more than go straight down 60m. decending through clear fresh water you will sink right into hydrogen sulfate cheap hotel deals layer (30m), branches reaching through it, underneath the cloud the salt water begins.
To enter this special cenote dive you need to jump through a hole in the ground, through the surface cheap hotel deals water which goes 3.5m down , salt water and fresh water make a amazing efect called halocline, the interface between 2 different densities.
It is quite suprising to see what the lower Mexican Pacific coast has to offer. This remote area of Mexico cheap hotel deals abounds with quiet and remote private beaches, large marine life, and bigger fishes, easy going people and cheaper rates from Hurricane Divers .
Cozumel is famous for its drift diving. Currents are usually gentle (1-2 knots). Temperatures are high throughout the year, between cheap hotel deals 25 and 32 o C. Summer water temperatures are around 29 o C and winter water temperatures around 25 o C. Hurricanes may arrive in September and October. From November to February winds lasting 2-3 days may blow in causing large waves on the West of the island.
Very good reefs with lots of life. Better be comfortable with drift diving or interested in getting to know more about it. Lots of comfortable places to stay. Easy to get to from North America. Fun relaxed Mexican environment.
I was in Cozumel at the end of May 2006, having been there at the same time last year and on three other occasions, and thought that the diving conditions hadn't changed too much after Wilma. Some of the shallow reefs have had sand blown over them but in the two weeks that I was there the reefs had already improved.
cheap hotel deals Got its name from the bricks that were dropped here by a capsized barge in the 1950s. cheap hotel deals Coral pinnacles rising from a slope between a sandy area and a drop-off. Swim-throughs and tunnels. Generally good visibility and gentle currents. One of four Palancar dive sites.
Touted as one of the "best dive locations in the world" I can believe it. A National Park, very protected, it is teaming cheap hotel deals with sea life, with beautiful corals cheap hotel deals and formations. Many locations for each the beginner and the experienced alike.
Each site we dove was beautiful and we were dropped right in the right place every time (no finning to the reef). The current makes for a wonderful relaxed drift dive at many sites although som sites have almost no current cheap hotel deals for those who prefer not to drift.
cheap hotel deals In my opinion, the Felipe cheap hotel deals (Mexican Navy Vessel) is hands down better than the Hilma Hooker (Bonaire). It's a full penetration dive that goes down through several levels of this ship. A spooky corridor too if you go it in the dark. Great Dive!
Wall dive. Starts at 18 m on sand. Descend along slope to the edge of the wall. Watch sand descend in rivers into the deep. At 25-30 m go North with the current along wall and swim-throughs. At end of dive look out for Southern Stingrays in the sand.
The most southernly reef: expect large swells on entry and exit. 30 m free descent to the edge of a wall. Drift along the wall with the current to a coral arch, the base of which is at 36 m. Return to the top of the reef at 25 m then ascend through ridges covered in soft coral.
Very deep 40m dive through coral caverns and a winding complex structure of the dive. Breaks through to an amazing wall dive coasting upwards cheap hotel deals through the amazing clear waters with lots of green turtles
The dive starts on sandy area 60ft, enter cave that leads to smaller cavern and see the narrow tunnel. cheap hotel deals Takes you from 80ft, 45degree cheap hotel deals angle to 130ft. lasts only seconds but is unforgettable. Once outside, another entrance leads to a chamber known as little Cathedral, which is a large cave opening with giant sponges where light passes through. Labyrint of coral leads you up to 30ft (ascent).
cheap hotel deals Excellent prices cheap hotel deals and superb service I would definitely dive with them again. I stayed in the dive house in Playa Del Carmen with stunnning views of the sea, roof terrace with hot tub and bbq area, rooms basic but excellent value.. cheap hotel deals yes would stay again definitely.
and small groups, always keeping a small ratio of divers to dive masters. We dive where you want to dive, and make our recommendations based on our knowledge of the area, just let us know what you are interested in! Big health reefs? Diving in Playa? Diving the cenotes? We do it all.
Scuba Betsy, an independent dive operator, was recommended cheap hotel deals to us by a dive shop in the US. Being not very confident divers, (a little worried about the currents) we wanted to find someone that would give us a little cheap hotel deals more than the "cattle barge" approach of many of the resort dive operators. Stationed cheap hotel deals in San Migel, Cozumel, she and her very apt crew will pick you up at your resort/motel dock if possible and take you to any of the great dive locations on the island. A two tank boat dive includes water or soft drinks, a deli lunch (don't expect to struggle with your gear, you are basically waited on hand and foot). A very competent and saftey cheap hotel deals conscientious dive instructor, Betsy helped us greatly on our breathing, cheap hotel deals enabling us to "stay down" for a full hour +! Betsy has been in Cozumel for over 15 years, not only does she know where to find those hidden creatures underwater, she also can steer you to the best above-water hidden spots. I cannot recommend Betsy enough, from beginners to experienced, she will make your diving experience unforgettable.
Just want to touch base to report a very pleasant cheap hotel deals and enjoyable experience with the folks of Hurricane Divers in Huatulco, Mexico. Great service and accommodation from the Hurricane Divers team (in three languages, English, French and Spanish). Ask for Roberto.
Easily the best operator I have ever used, far better than just about anywhere I have dived. The crew, dive masters and overall service were incredible. 10 out of 10. Living Underwater was simply the best dive operator I have ever used and I will be back as much as my wallet will allow me to go to Cozumel
Scuba Club Cozumel is a family run hotel and dive operation with incredibly abundant and tasty food and experienced dive operations and staff -- all included in a very affordable package. cheap hotel deals For North American divers, this is the best value and it's not too far to travel for fabulous diving.
We spent two weeks during April/May in Cozumel. I got certified through Dive with Martin. I recommend this dive company to everyone. They are very friendly and knowledgeable. They ask you what reef you'd like to dive or what you'd like to see and they take you to the best locations. They have really good deals and if you have to rent anything through cheap hotel deals them, their equipment is awesome. The visibility, marine life and reefs were excellent all 11 days we were there.
Hoping to visit next year and take my local PADI club with me - it's that good. Top diving in the world....Jesus would arrange the diving for us and would guess correctly what we wanted just by general chit chat...
Would definitely choose them among all others.They are in several cheap hotel deals resorts. cheap hotel deals But cheap and comfortable is Allegro Cozumel. The BEST dive resort on the island. Minutes away from the best reefs. For a little extra money you may choose the resort next door Occidental Grand, also operated by Pro Dive Mexico. Email them and
Nomad Divers is the smallest, and definitely the best dive operation in Costa Maya! I've been diving the Costa Maya area for years, and have used different operators, but now that I found them, I will never switch again...for me, diving in Costa Maya is Diving Nomad Divers! Best value, best dives, best everything!
