What To Expect
Begin this Discover Scuba Diving experience at a centrally-located meeting point in Cancun that's walking distance from many Zona Hotelera accommodations. Learn about the basics of equipment and safety during a dive theory session led by PADI-certified instructors, then suit up and enter the shallow end of a swimming pool in full diving gear. Make your first ocean dive at the Underwater Museum of Art, or MUSA, where more than 500 life-size sculptures are fixed to the seabed. Sculptures are made from coral-friendly materials, so the museum may interact with the natural world, and the artwork forms part of a complex reef structure. Continue to a second dive site at Manchones Reef, which stretches 7.5-miles (12 km) along the coast of Isla Mujeres. Spot elk horn, stag horn, and brain coral in between swaying fans and sea grass, and watch schools of blue tangs, wrasse, grunts, and snappers dart in and out of the reef. This is a good place to sight parrot fish, queen angel fish, and spotted trunkfish, as well as the dramatic Cruz de la Bahia, or Cross of the Bay. Return the the surface at the end of your second drive for the return boat trip to the Cancun dive center, where this Discover Scuba Diving experience concludes.
