Coz operator??

[domino22]

Have contacted a few dive ops in Coz and asked if they picked you up downtown and did they offer three tank dives. All who responded offered the normal two tank package and only one said they do not pickup in downtown. The others never said. Will not mention names so anyone have any ideas? We are staying in San Miguel to avoid taxis and now it is looking like we will need a taxi to go diving.We are trying to avoid the big boats.

AVOID THE BIG BOATS LIKE THE PLAGUE! At least that is what I would recomend.. I just got back from Coz about a month ago. We dove with Seaurchin dive and I cant speak highly enough of them, they are great. We averaged a 50min bottom time with them and went to allot of great places. There DM is a really nice guy and he know's the waters well. We had the mistfortune of diving with one of the cattle boats while we were down there and were lucky if we got a 35~40 minutes of bottom time on any dive.

Unfortunatly most of the operators who run the sixpacks probably wont go into town to pick you up, but its only a 5 or 10 minute taxi ride to the marina to get on your boat. But it cant hurt to ask.

here is there contact info..
www.SeaUrchinDive.com
Phone - from USA: 011-52-987-878-4888
Phone - from Cozumel: 878-4888
Cell - from Cozumel: 044-987-800-6797

P.s. Im not affiliated with these guys at all, I just like what they do and how they do it.

Aldora actually has their own pier
www.aldora.com

The Aldora pier is a public pier actually (provided that the op has a contract and pays monthly fees), and is operated by Ultramar, the ferry company. The name Aldora pier goes back a long way. This is the same pier Deep Blue, Aldora, myself and a few other tour companies use.

Aqua Safari actually has their own private pier.

I agree try aldora we are in cozumel right now and are stayint at the Villa Aldora they willl pick you up at the villa and also at the pier down town. try www.aldora.com te weather is great a few showers but nothing to cancell dives. We had some great dives today the vis is down some on the shallow dives but not on the dives deeper than 60 Our first dive was 85 feet vis was 85+ ON THAT DIVE. THE NEXT DIVE WAS AT TORMENTOS AND THE VIS THERE WAS ABOUT 50 FEET. WE SAW TURTLES, SEA HORSES (LARGE ONES) SPOTTE EAGLE RAYS, TOMORROW WE ARE DIVING PUNTA SUR. KATHY FROM TEXAS IN COZUMEL RIGHT NOW. THIS VILLA IS GREAT FREE HIGH SPEED INTERNET AND FREE LONG DISTANCE CALLING TO THE STATES. THE ROOMS ARE BEAUTIFUL but you must be diving with Aldora to be able to stay here. We are right on the water with a fantastic view. Great night snorkeling or diving just a few steps from your room.

ScubaTony is awesome and I am sure he will dive 3 dives a day with you. He is awesome and you get max bottom time with Tony. He is in San Miguel and came to Occidental Grand to pick us up, then took us back up by San Miguel to dive. Very friendly and a Max of 6 divers. Highly recommend him.

We just got back from coz after doing 18 dives. We used "Dive with Alison". I know that she doesnt pick up in downtown but its worth a taxi ride. The nice thing is you can pay as you go. Some days we did 3 dives.. some dives we did 2. I have a review on my website.
