The Meso-American Barrier Reef runs over 900 kilometers from Cozumel to Honduras. The section of reef off Mahahual (Costa Maya) has many finger formations that have created canyons and swim-throughs. The reef here is very healthy and in almost pristine condition – you will see cactus coral as well as many hard and soft species.
The equipment used is top-of-the-line and is continuously maintained by Sherwood-certified technicians. BCDs and regulators are replaced on a regular basis. The quality of the equipment helps ensure everyone has a safe and fun day.
The one-tank dive is approximately 2 hours and the two-tank dive is approximately 3 hours. Choose this dive excursion as a separate activity or as an add-on to your All Inclusive YaYa Beach Break!
