Diving Puerto Aventuras
Some of our best clips from our trip to Quintana Roo, Mexico to dive off the coast of Puerto Aventuras. We had originally planned another Cozumel trip, however in staying in Riviera Maya, our friends at Xpu Ha Divers asked us to consider their side of the Caribbean. The reef and marine life were above expectations! We dove the Canyons, the Ruins, and the Little Caves dive sites and we had a killer time! Thank you to Marcos with Xpu Ha Divers for the solid advice and hospitality!

At over 300 foot deep, this private, spring fed, lake is the only place deep enough for technical dive training within a few hundred miles. It’s 20-30 foot visibility and consistent water temps make it a great recreational dive as well. This site is on private land, and...

Some of our best clips from our trip to Quintana Roo, Mexico to dive off the coast of Cozumel. The trip was short and sweet but definitely not our last! We dove along the beautiful and healthy Santa Rosa Wall, then we dove the C53 Felipe Xicotencatl ship wreck. The C53 is a 184 foot long US Navy mine sweeper sunk back in 1999 as an artificial reef! She sits upright at about 80 foot of crystal c...

      Students tell me after taking the rescue class that they now have a keen awareness of potential problems that could occur not only for themselves but others as well and that they now feel a responsibility to look after other divers especially the inexperienced. I believe this to be true and it makes you much more responsible.

      The base level certification for scuba is pretty easy and strait forward. It's also pretty standard across every training agency. Although it's more than enough to make you a safe and competent diver, we do recommend our students continue their training to more advanced levels including specialty certifications.

    This is one of those random areas that just oddly exist, and it's enjoyable at the same time. I practice breath endurance here by descending below those diver-resting bars where the ropes merge into one, and it's quite a view, to be honest. I don't know if you would happen to know how far down that is? I don't own one of those fancy depth meters, so I'm not certain about how deep I'm going. Otherwise, it's still a great place, although it's fairly chilly.
