Cozumel's Reefs
- Beyond Anything I Could Imagine -
A Trip Report by
Tricia Cox
I just returned from a week of diving in Cozumel, and the reefs were
beyond anything I could have imagined. Some of my favorite spots were
the Santa Rosa wall and Tormentos - Santa Rosa for its sheer grandeur and
caves, and Tormentos for the brilliant colors, abundance of fish life,
and a green eel whose head was at least one foot in diameter.
Another great part was the gentle current that carried us along the reefs - we hardly had to move a muscle. With the boat then picking us up at the endpoint of the dive, I felt like I could very easily get spoiled diving in Cozumel! The small boats were really great- we dove in small groups, and I always felt like I could get any assistance that I needed.
During one surface interval near the shore, three dolphins swam by our
boat, and we were able to dive in and snorkel close to them for a few
minutes-- an experience I'll never forget.
All this along with the beauty of Cozumel will make me return again...
very soon I hope!
