| If you are going to scuba dive
in the Riviera Maya in the beautiful Caribbean
reefs you must come diving in Playa Del Carmen,
Riviera Maya. Its only a 35 minute ferry ride
from Cozumel to Playa Del Carmen and we are
within 40 minutes from Cancun, Tulum, Puerto
Aventuras and Akumal. You will not forget this
experience in your lifetime ! Diving in Playa
Del Carmen has beautiful ocean reefs and caverns
/ cenotes diving to offer.
Scuba Diving in the open water
 of
the Caribbean is an experience hard to forget.
Some of the dives are drift dive. Others you can
see hundreds of turtles or maybe you want to go
through some beautiful arches in the bottom of
the sea. It is all possible in Playa Del Carmen
and the Riviera Maya.
Scuba Dive Prices
If you are new to Scuba Diving we have great
instructors. You can take a crash course called
Discover Scuba Diving and dive with one
of our instructors in just a few hours to a
maximum depth of 30 feet. Or you can do an Open
Water Course (3 to 4 days ). If you live in a
place that is just not conducive to doing your
open water dives come here and relax in the
Caribbean and do your
Referral Course (2 days). If you just
want to gain more experience you can do the
Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver,
or your DiveMaster Course.
Cenotes - Caverns - Caves
 This
diving area on the Riviera Maya just across the
waters from Cozumel has the most amazing cavern
/ cenote diving in the world. These caverns
have no current, the water is crystal clear, the
water temperature is 25 Celsius (78 Fahrenheit)
and the average depths is 35 feet (10 meters
) all this makes for a very easy and comfortable
diving experience. One that you will never
forget. The biggest misconception is that you
need a special certificate. All you need
is an open water certification to experience the
pristine cenotes / caverns .
Check out our Diving packages.
The word "Cenote" is pronounced, say-no-tay
and is derived from the Mayan word, "Dzonot"
which means sacred well. A combination of
various geological events and climate changes
created an incredible and unique ecosystem in
Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula.
