Plongée à Cozumel — Mexico
Cozumel's reputation as the drift diving capital of the world is well earned — gentle-to-moderate currents carry divers effortlessly along spectacular walls and coral formations at Palancar, Santa Rosa, and Columbia reefs. The island's crystal-clear Caribbean waters consistently deliver 100+ foot visibility, and the endemic splendid toadfish is found nowhere else on Earth. Easy access from the US mainland makes this one of the most convenient world-class dive destinations.
