Comments We reserved boat for 2 divers and consequently had maximum one-on-one attention and support from Jeremy Anschel, owner of Living Underwater. Jeremy actively solicited input on our diving preferences before recommending dive sites, then gave excellent, detailed pre-dive briefings. He was also consistently attentive underwater, often checking your computer personally to make certain decompression dives were going smoothly.

Living Underwater uses steel 120's for extended dive times and beautiful drift dives with the time to closely examine the smallest reef creatures. Jeremy is sharp-eyed divemaster who will show tiny creatures with the same enthusiasm as the large ones.

Cozumel's reefs are in better shape now than the early 1990's, and Jeremy will show you many treats. Corals and sponges are in excellent condition generally, and although some damage is evident on extensively dived spots, we saw these only intermittently enroute
from one beautiful spot to another with Living Underwater. Jeremy and Living Underwater are living proof of Undercurrent's value to the discriminating diver.
