Would Pizza Hut be considered local in Cozumel? It is always packed with locals.

Local food!!!

Big difference between packed with local and local food.

I dove with Roberta's Scuba Shack in March 2019 for 4-5 days and would recommend her operation. Fast boats, experienced DMs and fair pricing. Lot's of others on Scubaboard will agree too. Especially if you are staying close to their shop which is near El Cid/ Casa del Mar/ Park Royal area south of downtown
But yeah start a new thread if you are looking for more info

My first experience and I am here a lot in December/January. Our DM has 15,000+ dives on the island and wasn't sure of the name of the jelly fish. I am going to look online and see if I can find it. They did not have tentacles or sting. Visibility was around 35-45 feet the last 2 days. Water temps are ranging 78-80 depending on the day and location over the last 10 days. I switched to my 5mm wetsuit a few days ago and am quite comfortable.

thanks TB have safe travels and and an awesome new years

Everything is relative. Pizza Hut on Cozumel is like Mexican food is in the US.

I think the photo is a spot winged comb jelly. Salps as I know them have barrel/tube body.

I think you nailed it!

This is what the jellies looked like:- They might be called Salps?
