Comments Dive Center and Retail Shop
Best of all, the Scuba Cozumel 5-Star Dive Center is open in the hotel 7am-6pm daily, with a retail shop across the street that’s open 9am-5pm, except Sundays and holidays.

The Dive Center was run very efficiently with a manager and about a dozen employees, including many “schleppers” who wheeled tanks on wheelbarrows to and from the dock about 50 yards away and its eight dive boats each morning between 8-9am.

A Great Value
Our group package for ten of us from Marin Scuba Club north of San Francisco included seven nights, breakfast and lunch daily, and five days of two-tank morning boat dives, plus unlimited shore diving for only $856.85 USD per person for two in a room or $1,392.20 USD for a single traveler.
