The main star of the diving around Playa Del Carmen is undoubtedly the cenotes. These sinkholes are unique to the Yucatan and are easy dives for all experience levels. But there is so much more to discover and with the Pro Dive Mexico team, you are in safe hands!
Pro Dive Mexico are a multinational team who have the experience you need to make your diving holiday in Mexico a success. They can teach all PADI courses right through from your first try dive up to Divemaster... and beyond.
Mexico's cenotes are cave dives with a difference - many are bight, spacious environments and divers do not need special training. All cenotes dives are carefully guided and technical caves can be dived (please discuss this at the time of booking). Dos Ojos and Chac Mol are must do dives! But in addition to the famous cenotes there are great reef and wreck dives on your door step. The Mama Vina wreck sits at 30m and has become a popular artificial reef with divers. There are gentle reef dives for less experienced divers or head to Turtle reef, where pelagic fish and turtles await. Between December and March you can dive with bull sharks from Playa del Carmen - please talk to one of our consultants if you would like more information.
Solmar V is a classic Socorro liveaboard, with the most experienced crew Mexico has to offer - at an affordable price. This is the pelagic life adventure you have been waiting for
