Diving Recommnedation - Playa Del Carmen?
Im off to Playa Del Carmen in Mexico next month, can anyone recommend any good dive location close by? I've been looking at the Cenote Caves and Cozemel.


TIA

On the cenote front, Dos Ojos is a good cavern dive or two, though it gets a bit like Piccadilly Circus at times. Should be a bit quieter at this time of year. Or there's a nice cavern dive at Taj Mahal, which is nearer.

Cozumel sites like Palancar are an option and there's a wreck of a Russian warship too. Tortuga reef off Playa is a good dive, plenty of turtles and tarpon. Some of the shallower Playa dives are good for fish life.

Just don't leave anything of any value in the car. It's quite isolated.
