Dive trips and training
The center’s activities include guided dives, certification courses and private lessons. Coastal trips can visit reefs and wrecks, while some itineraries head to cenotes south of Playa del Carmen. A boat trip to a reef site was described as taking about 30 minutes from shore; travel time depends on the dive location.
Training options include a Rescue Diving Class with instructor Phoenix. The course is hands-on and covers responding to an unconscious diver, underwater emergencies and panic situations. Ask the center which course suits your certification level and what the planned dives include.
