You've heard it all before but diving the waters of Cozumel is
exceptional and breathtaking and the dives sites look different even
if you return to the same spot in the same week.
Since "insiders" live here on the island and dive several times each
week, this information is about as accurate as you will get with regard
to dive conditions on an ongoing basis. Enjoy and come dive with us soon!

Any time is a good time to visit Cozumel ~ there are no really bad times
of year weather-wise in Cozumel! That's the great thing about this island
tropical setting ... it's never bad as compared to other places further
north! But, with regard to dive conditions etc. here are a few guidelines
to determine if you would be happy/comfortable diving during these time
frames:
- March - June: (Spring/Summer) Seas are usually flat,
skies sunny ... alot of "no cloud" days, water temp 79-81 and viz
from 100 - 300+ depending on if the island gets any rains. These
months riding on the boat is pleasantly warm because humidity is
less and alot of sunscreen is needed.
-
July - October: (Rainy Season) Seas are usually flat,
skies are more cloudy and rain comes/goes throughout the day with
no real rhyme or reason so it's very humid [70%+] as well as warm.
Water temp will be 80-84 and 300+ viz if the rains are scattered.
This is also part of our hurricane/tropical storm time .... if these
roll thru ~ all bets are off on water conditions obviously!! However,
with that said this is also a great time to be here diving if there
is no "weather"... Fewer divers, fewer people in general.
- November -February: (Winter) Seas will be lightly
choppy, most days it will be sunny with skies partly cloudy and water
temps will go from 84 down to 78-80 range. Viz will be very good
generally. During winter we get "nortes" that blow in from time to
time and shut down diving for 2-3 days. Also, the boat rides can
be chilly for sometimes there are low north winds and diving goes
on.
These conditions only affect personal comfort so each person must decide
what they are willing to tolerate what nature has to offer ~
As far as critters go ... they are here no matter what the weather although
divers are more likely to see larger stuff during the winter months when
the deep water is cooler ... especially the spotted eagle rays!
Just become a frequent visitor and you'll see that any day diving beats
being somewhere else no matter the time of year!!

We were pleasantly surprised to find our guide, Luis Miguel, waiting for us at the marina, since we were running late. Eagle Ray Divers accomodated us by going snorkeling on two reefs instead of three, and had a great time!
Thank you for making allowances to include Cruise ship people like us, whose itinerary can change unexpectedly. R Ruesenberg ~ Fridley, Minnesota USA

We just came back from a week of diving at Cozumel with Dive Paradise. It was absolutely fantastic. We had a large group and the three dive masters were excellent. I would like to thank Santos, Julio, and Jesus for the best vacation I have had in many years. The diving in Cosumel is supurb, but these gentlemen made the experience that much more enjoyable. Thanks again and we'll see you soon! J. King ~ Eaton Rapids, MI

I recently took a 1 week trip to Playa Del Carmen. The reps. at the hotel recommended we take the Famous Fury Snorkel and Beach Party excursion. So, we took the ferry to Cozumel and boarded the Fury Cat Cozumel. I totally loved the Catamaran ride… hot sun, warm breeze and beautiful views. 2 of my companions snorkeled and even though they have snorkeled quite a lot they were very impressed. Although my friend and I were afraid to snorkel,"Willy" and the crew made sure we got to see some fish from the Cat. . We had such a good time that we were sad it was over. Keep up the good work Fury Cat! P. Cline ~ Brandon, Manitoba, Canada

My husband and I had the "BEST" time at your park. The dolphin encounter was truly amazing! We can't wait to come back and let our children experience it. It is on the top of our "to do" list with our children. Thanks for the exceptional hopitatily! S. and R. Ketron ~ Cincinnati, OH

March, 2007- Wanted to report back about our excursions you booked for us. We loved the
submarine tour. Being able to go down 100' was incredibly exciting! We saw a
turtle and a few large groupers. The reefs were really beautiful, so glad
we did this. Jennifer Lansing ~ Palo Verdes Estate, California
