Dive with Purpose Cozumel, 77675 Cozumel

Santa Rosa Wall (★4.6)

Almost exactly in front of the Occidental Cozumel hotel, this wall offers divers breath-taking views of the abyss under the steep pdrop off as well as many pass-throughs between the deep blue and the safety of a relatively shallow shelf. A few adjacent shallower coral balls offer a suitable spot for a safety stop.

Dragon Bay (★4.6)

Dragon Bay has a mix of sand, seagrass, reef islands and a sloping reef. A gentle current, if any, gives you plenty of time to explore its shallow area.

Mares

Quarantine Point (★4.7)

Reef system with Tongue and bay type, top about 14 mtrs / 46 ft and bottom 75 ft / 22 mtrs. “Bays“ have sand, and flounders can be seen as well as Barracuda, drums and Scorpion fish. The “Tongues“ have Seaplumes and Porites corals growing and seem to be a favourite for Seahorses.

Mares

Flamingo Bay Wall (★4.8)

Outside of Flamingo Bay is a wall 30ft / 10 mtr to 40 mtr / 130ft. Expect a current and a chance of large pelagics with many reef creatures on the edge / top of the reef.

Mares

Scotts Head Drop Off (★4.6)

An amazing wall that is absolutely full of colour! This site is usually visited as a second dive but it is full of life from over 30m/100ft deep to 5m/15ft deep. Lots of crevices and cracks in the wall make it a great macro site good for lobsters, crabs and shrimps. You can get current if you go outside the bay.

Soufreire Pinnacles (★4.5)

A series of pinnacles right in front of Soufriere Village that makes a perfect second or even third dive, as it is beautiful at very shallow depths.

Mares

Point Guirnard (★4.3)

An easy dive for all levels. Sloping reef inside the headland is always calm but there can be current as you go around. After the turnaround the shallow reef is really beautiful.

Mares, Predrag Vuckovic

Champagne (★4.7)

The world famous dive site is more than just a volcanic vent of bubbles! A nice reef dive easy for all levels, a muck dive out in the sand and even an old cannon in the shallows. The bubbles are in 15ft/5m of water so they make a great safety stop!

Mares, Janez Kranjc

Danglebens Pinnacles (★4.5)

A series of 5 pinnacles from 40ft/12m depth to 30m/100ft depth. Suitable for all levels but the start is in the open water and down onto the pinnacle at 40ft, there is no shallow area and there can be currents here. A topographical dream with lots of drop offs, valleys and pinnacles full of life.

Nature Island Dive, 00190-8000 Soufriere

Scotts Head Pinnacle (★4.8)

Everyday you dive this site is a great day! One of the island’s most diverse sites with walls, swim-throughs, caverns, flat sand and large rocky fields full of life. The highlight is the large swim-through into the volcanic crater wall and into the volcano! Then you drop onto the wall and sit back and be amazed!

Mares

Craters Edge (★4.6)

The last divable point of the volcanic crater! A spectacular pinnacle that juts out into the crater and attracts tons of pelagics and schooling fish. Most of the time your head is spinning trying to watch the fish action and you forget to look at the wall full of sponges and gorgonians!

Scubapro, Stephen Frink

L’Abym North (★4.4)

A continuation of the dramatic wall L’Abym. It’s a mix of dramatic wall and great critters and macro on the wall also. Suitable for all levels as there is seldom currents and it’s protected from waves and wind as it’s so close to shore.

Mares, Janez Kranjc

Tu Sab (★4.6)

A small scale wall, for Dominica, perfect for beginners and large groups. Its very protected and hard to get too lost inside the bay. While it’s no where near as colourful as Scotts Head drop off around the corner its crevices hides lots of critters. Many species of lobsters and crabs. Also a great night dive!

Mares, Janez Kranjc

Tikila Beach (★4.5)

Located just south of town, this is a great entry point for confined and open water training. Max depth 20 feet and partially protected from the current. Also great for night dives & photographers.

Spectacular reef at 12 meters. Statues and a beautiful coral garden are both found here. Jardin de corales. There is numerous marine life with incredible colors. A great place for conducting training.

Located at the “Witch’s Hut“. Good parking and easy entry from a stone path and across a sandy beach. Well sheltered. Great macro site. Lots of sponges.

Culebra Divers, 00775 Culebra

Tugboat (★4.7)

The Tugboat lies in only 40 feet of water, but the area is surrounded by shallow reefs so caution is necessary when attempting to dive this site. Current can be mild to strong, and there are some limited penetration opportunities for wreck certified divers, hence the Beginner to Advanced rating.
