Mexico offers a wealth of diverse
diving opportunities, on the Carribean, Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Mexico and the Sea of Cortez. Several Mexican sites rate in the top 20 places to dive on the planet, so seriously give Mexico some thought for dive trips. These pages highlight
those dive sites in Baja California and the Cancun area (including Cozumel). The sites I've visited have a wealth of sea-life. Cozumel seemed
a bit over-fished for large shoals, though we did see some big stuff: stingrays, Potato Cod & the largest lobster I've ever seen!
Each area has something unique: the "sand falls" & pinnacles of Cabo San Lucas; sealions in Cabo and La Paz; great wall dives & over 100 ft visibility in Cozumel. The Cenote caverns near Cancun are outstanding, even for new divers.
If you don't look at anything else, I strongly recommend checking out the short video of the Cenotes I edited down from original footage shot by professional videographer Edgar Garcia Gonzales & shown here with his permission.
The towns & surface facilities are just as diverse: from a modern Cancun area, rebuilt following Hurricane Wilma in 2005, to the sleepy little town of Cabo Pulmo & of course "Party Central":
Cabo San Lucas.
If you use underwater cameras, you may want to check out my precautions against flooding section under Got Video/ Getting Ready: I added a few more sentences to help you avoid or mitigate such
an occurrence & a link to an insurance company that I use, which is supposed to cover such losses. Check out these other pages to get more information on different sites in Mexico & see some short videos.
