Comments [None]I have over 300 dives in Cozumel over the past 20 years. I had a chance to take a quick 4 day dive trip in August 2019. I was with some friends and they insisted that we dive with their favorite operator. I have been using the same DM for over 20 years, so it was hard for me to let go. We dove with Alex Salas of Alex Adventures and WOW... His top side experience was way better than my go to and under water he was better as well. I can highly recommend Alex Salas of Alex Adventures in Cozumel.

We stayed in town at Casa Mexicana. Typical Mexican hotel with a good breakfast. Clean, center of town and easy walking distance to all my favorite local restaurants
