SNUBA is a unique, shallow water diving system, bridging the gap between snorkeling and scuba diving. SNUBA is safe, easy and does not require certification. Even if you have never snorkeled, SNUBA diving is available for you. SNUBA is easily accessible to couples, families, children and seniors. It is also a great way for a certified diver to introduce non-certified partners to the underwater breathing experience.
SNUBA is one of the best ways to see Cozumel's underwater beauty up close. Don't leave Cozumel without trying this unique experience in one of the best underwater places in the world.

We do not suggest that you schedule other time-sensitive activities immeiately after your SNUBA.

Take the ferry 90 minutes to two hours before your scheduled time. Arrive at the ferry terminal in Playa del Carmen at least 15 minutes before departure. Once in Cozumel you can take a 12 minute walk south (turn right as you exit the pier) to the downtown location inside Jeanie's Beach Club. If you don't feel like walking, you can also take a taxi ride to Jeanie's or to the Chankanaab Park location.

Absolutely! SNUBA is very different (and much better) than snorkeling. SNUBA is like SCUBA except that you do not have a bulky tank on your back.
The SNUBA® system is designed with safety in mind and SNUBA guides are trained to ensure your dive is a safe and fun one.
While you don't have to be a strong swimmer or even a good swimmer, you do have to know how to swim. If you can't swim, we suggest that you try Sea Trek. Also known as helmet diving, Sea Trek allows you walk on the ocean floor.
Yes, SNUBA® is not allowed for pregnant women and people with heart conditions.
For safety reasons and personal enjoyment, SNUBA® is limited to groups of six at a time. However larger groups take turns, six at a time while others in the group snorkel or relax oceanside.
The maximum depth you can go during SNUBA is 20 feet below the surface. However, the beauty of SNUBA is that each participant gets to stay at any depth they feel comfortable without affecting any other divers in the group.
No. SNUBA is considered a shore dive. Our Chankanaab location has a live reef and our downtown location has plenty of fish to see.
