About this experience
Underwater museum in Cancun is one of the most unusual museum on our Planet. It combines the artistic side with the conservation of the environment. The sculptures not just look magnificent, but also serve as a basis for the growth of corals, repopulating the reef. You have a unique chance to see it in your own eyes. And the good news is you don't have to have any previous dive experience or diving certificate!

Itinerary and highlights
In the morning we meet at the meeting point in our dive base in Cancun. There we have a swimming pool for training and boat marina. This is perfect for beginners. One instructor normally takes a group of maximum 4 divers, so he can pay enough attention on each. The instructor will prepare your dive equipment, explain you how it works, safety rules, basic physics, physiology of diving, means of communication under water. You will enter the pool (the depth of your chest), get used to breathing under water and do a few basic skills. After the pool we will take 20 min boat ride to the dive site. We do 2 dives: one at the Musa, underwater museum, than we get up on boat, change our air tanks and do the 2nd dive on the reef with lots of fish, moray eel, rays, lobsters, turtles. Each of these 2 dives is 30-40 minutes, max depth 10 m (30 feet)
