Comments [None]We have taken three consecutive dive trips in March to Cozumel in the last three years. Each dive operator we had was great (1st. Dressel Divers, 2nd Aqua Safari, and this year Dive House). It was nice to be the last ones departing for the reef and first to be dropped off home. All instructors, guides and support staff were excellent. My wife and I are experienced divers and so we went off with other experienced divers and guide. There can be a lot of "diver traffic" in Cozumel - our guides let us choose the dives sites (weather permitting). Great care was taken to protect the reef and to not interfere with marine life. At the end of our final dive as we swam to shallower waters for a safety stop we were told to sink to the sand motionless to observe to big rays swimming around us. Magical. Lots of sharks, great coral formations, tons of lobster sitings and turtles. Drift diving is not for everyone, but we enjoyed it. With a limited vacation time we like to return to Cozumel. This March was Secrets, the year prior was Cozumel Palace and previous year was Iberostar. All very good.
