Xcalak Scuba Diving
Xcalak Scuba Diving
On the day of the activity, we'll meet at the dive centre located at Km 54 of the Camino Costero 1 hour before your chosen time. From there, we'll start our scuba diving activity in Xcalak.
Our activity will begin with a 15-minute theory lesson, after which we'll board the boat that'll be waiting for us at the dock in front of the dive centre. We'll then set sail through the Mexican Caribbean until we get to a marine park where we'll find coral reefs, mangroves and other marine ecosystems.
We'll look for spots with the ideal conditions for diving where we'll also be able to see plenty of marine wildlife. These places could include the Sábalo Pool or the manatee reserve in Chetumal Bay. The spot we choose will depend on the weather and the sea conditions on the day.
Once we've chosen our diving spot, we'll do two dives down to a depth of 130 feet (40 metres). You'll be able to dive through the coral gardens and spot the different species that live here. The duration of the dive will be between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on where we dive.
Afterwards, we'll return to the Xcalak dock by boat and finish our 2-hour 30-minute activity.
