Drift diving adventures
Where we are diving
Join Angie and Kevin in Cozumel at Dive House for a great getaway – friendly locals, good food, lively nightspots, warm water, great visibility and white sandy beaches. Most dive sites are within the national marine park, where you can find 26 types of coral and more than 500 fish species, including the endemic splendid toadfish and loggerhead, hawksbill and green turtles. Relax and enjoy the drift diving experience. The crew will wash and store your gear each night, and have it back to your spot the next day!Â

Angie Fuller, Trip Leader
Cozumel was my first ocean dive – and will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s easy enough for novice divers with so much life and excitement for even the most experienced divers. Want a dive vacation where you can just ride the current and relax as the creatures pass by? Cozumel for the win. Want a trip where you can really practice buoyancy while enjoying some fantastic dives AND great activities on land? Cozumel! Safe, fun, relaxing with an upscale family feel, Fiesta Americana and Dive House raise the bar on everywhere else I’ve stayed/dove with on the island. Over 20 trips in 10 years (and I’ve been ALL over the world) I never get tired of vacationing in Cozumel – join us!
Kevin Marks, Trip Leader
I have been swimming since a few weeks after I was born and interested in diving for about as long as the water has been wet. I actually did my first dives in a pool in 1999 but didn’t do my open water course until 2013. Since then, I’ve enjoyed the warm, salty waters of Cozumel and Roatán, the frigid freshwater of Lake Michigan, and plenty of oceans, lakes, and quarries in between. My favorite underwater activity is macro photography. I’ve been a dive pro with Diventures since September of 2019. The best thing about being a dive pro is introducing new people to the underwater environment, helping them overcome their fears, and finding that aha moment when a new skill or technique suddenly clicks.

What prior travelers say
My travel experience with Diventures was amazing! After signing up, basically everything is taken care of and you just need to make sure you show up at the airport! Everyone was so informative and clearly have the experience to help any step of the way. This was the best trip I have ever been on and I can’t wait to pick out my next destination with Diventures!

Know before you go
Electricity – There are no adapters required. If you’re visiting from the States, you won’t need to worry about an adapter for your cell phone or computer. Cozumel operates on a 110 V.Â
Bug Spray – Please be sure to bring it with you! Mosquitos are mostly active in the early morning hours and around sundown.Â
Water – Although the water that comes out of the faucet on Cozumel is in fact potable, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you should drink it. While it’s okay to bathe in, we suggest you use bottled water for absolutely anything else.Â
Credit Cards – You are able to use your credit cards in most stores and restaurants. Just remember that the charge will be made in pesos and your bank will charge you in dollars. Â
Money – 1 Mexican Peso equals 0.0549 USD. So, 20 Mexican Peso is about 1 USD.Â
