Your favourite Cozumel dive site, and why?

[attack33]

The Palancars & Santa Rosa Wall...epic vistas.

Agreed on these two!!

Grieta de Rosa?

Hmmm...

My top overall pick would probably have to be the Sleeping Sharks Cave dive site that Aldora do outside the marine park as part of their Adventure 3-tank.

As for inside the park; my personal favorite is probably a tossup between San Juan and/or Cedral Wall, depending on conditions.

San Juan isn't in the park.

Same, except I haven't heard of Jurassic Park.

When you get to the Columbia sites, push the throttles down harder and keep going.
It's advanced, but the reef and animals are way different from the other sites mentioned.
P.S. You better have a pretty Thick Tip for the crew to take you there.

San Juan isn't in the park.

My bad, but still a favorite,

The Finger-Coral garden at the end of San Juan is simply amazing...

Always had a fondness for that whole area north of the Presidential Villa; plus low traffic and nearer to town.

Columbia Deep followed by Columbia Shallow on a Fast Boat from Dive Paradise. Makes a great last day of a trip. No surface interval required and a second dive that lasts as long as your air does. Added bonus, we've had snorkelers above us at least a half dozen times, 3 times, I'd swear they were from the Swedish Bikini Team. Final bonus of that combo is that you're done diving and have the first beer going down before noon.

Will have to keep this in mind next time I'm there so I can squeeze another couple dives in. Think return flights for me are all after midday so thats perfect.

Cedral wall, Santa Rosa, Palancar...
This is not a fair question. It is like asking who is your favorite child. Love them all

Cmon, you gotta have 1 dive that you could call your favourite dive you've ever had at Cozumel on. What dive site was it at?

 

[Dave Dillehay]

For me, in the Park with hundreds if not thousands of dives behind me, the south part of the Punta Sur Reef with the grand finale down the Devil's Throat is it. But I have always loved swim throughs-- which are not everyones cup of sea water!

By all mean Punta Sur:
On the south end of the Cathedral coral head one day (about 6 years back) I was hunting lionfish and backtracked a lateral of a swim through at about 90', wide but limited in height. Worked my way in without disturbing the heavy silt and about 40' back and found a vertical about 30" in diameter and I could see a chamber below about 10' down. Down I went, in the small chamber moved about 6' west and found another vertical tube same thing chamber about 10' down in that chamber I found a tube going down and I could see a light glow. In I went, when I popped out it was absolutely perfect visibility on a stunning day at 135' on a breathtaking virgin wall.
#2 any good day on Chun Chacab
#3 late afternoon with good visibility on the Yucab wall first the massive overhangs and then into 'The Beauty' amphitheater at 120-140'
