Hey, when are you going? Where are you staying? I am heading down there in 2 weeks.

I visited Riviera Maya and stayed at the all inclusive Palladium resort. This just 10 minutes north of Akumal. Although I did not journey to Akumal this trip, the Palladium site gave rave reviews for snorkeling there. I dove with www.scubacaribe.com and some of the folks that I dove with took a trip with them to Cozumel. FYI - I was in Cozumel last year and every dive was fantastic.
I was dissapointed with the reef area that we dove off the Palladium. One fairly deep dive and one shallower (with swim through :) ). Seemed like the big hurricane of a few years ago beat the place up a bit. On my dives there didn’t seem to be too much life around. I did see a mid-size turtle on the shallower dive and a stingray while snorkeling in about 3’ of water off the resort beach.
Have fun!

We are staying at the Gran Bahia Akumal April 2-9. I plan to dive with Bahia Dive Center.

Great, I plan to dive with them also. But really interested in going to Cozumel for a 2-tank dive. Would love to leave directly from Akumal and cross the water to Cozumel, this would save alot of resort time. See what happens. Maybe we can buddy up with Bahia divers I plan to start diving on April 7.

If you look on the Bahia dive center website, they offer a Cozumel dive trip. I am not sure what the transportation is, but it may list that information.
I don’t know when we will start diving (I am going with my wife and kids, but my son is the only one that dives besides me). We plan on doing a few reef dives, a night dive, and a cenotes dive (I have never done one of those yet).
