Comments There were two groups on the boat we were assigned with a total of 23 sport divers. The drift diving mandated the groups enter the water quickly and together. Many divers were rushed. This was our 5th trip to Scuba Club in Cozumel. We return, even though each time we have been treated like cattle, because of the phenomenal hard coral formations and abundant tropicals. Excellent food!
