Cruise Friendly Scuba Operations

[borg1of2]

Hi,

 

My DW and I are looking at doing a short cruise down to Cozumel and we'd like to get in 2 - 2 Tank dives on the day we are in Cozumel. The ship is there from 7 AM to 7 PM, so to me it seems like plenty of time to get in an AM 2 Tank dive and then a PM 2 Tank dive. However I don't really want to do it through the cruise ship and would like to find a dive operation that I can easily get to and has the flexibility we are looking for with our dives. I've read that some of the good dive operations don't offer to cruise ship passengers and was curious as to why.

 

If anyone has any recommendations or if I need to post this on the Scuba board please let me know.

It wouldn't hurt to take this to the Scuba Board, but you should check out Mystic Snorkel and Eagle Ray Divers. I've seen rave reviews on both companies. You might click on these two websites, too. www.cozumelmycozumel.com and www.cozumelinsider.com.

 

Lots of info here.

I'm in the same situation and went with Aldora Divers. Great service, answered all my questions & addressed all my concerns. http://www.aldora.com/ ask for Kay & Greg.

www.divewithmartin.com is who I use when I'm in Cozumel. They are located on the International Pier.

Also try http://www.scubawithalison.com She is pretty good about working around the cruiseship schedule.

Here is a second vote for Allison. Have used her twice and going back for a 3rd time in March. Either Allison or Chucho serves as DiveMaster and both are excellent.
