We have spent 30 years diving in Playa del Carmen, the Riviera Maya and the cenotes, and we still get excited every time we head out. At Deep Mexico, we keep our groups small — usually no more than 4 to 6 divers — so you get more guide attention, more safety and more time to enjoy each dive.
Whether it is your first dive or your 500th, we help you choose the right experience — cenotes, Cozumel trips, PADI courses or seasonal encounters like bull sharks and whale sharks.
Small groups, local guidance and personalized dive planning in the Riviera Maya.
