The place
The best place in the world for your first bubbles
Water at 26-29 °C, exceptional visibility, sheltered and shallow sites: the Riviera Maya is probably the dream place for a try dive. And you choose the setting: the coral reef at Playa or Akumal, the legendary reef of Cozumel, or the unreal magic of a cenote.
