Cozumel Diver Discounts Offered
Posted Wednesday, September 5, 2012

In an effort to create new awareness about Cozumel’s reefs,
to attract new divers to the island and to treat all divers
as an important part of Cozumel’s economy and future, a new
diver’s discount program is about to be implemented, the
“Plan Local for Scuba Divers”.

The program is the brainchild of Paul Ellis, a long-time
resident of the island and the founder of the Swim for
the Reef Foundation. For those of you who don’t know Paul,
he created the foundation to promote reef awareness and
reef protection in 2004. Later that year, he became the
only the second person to swim from Cozumel to Cancun,
a feat that received attention from media outlets around
the world and helped to publicize reef conservation.

Mexico Water Jets, and the members of COPERMEX
(business association)and CANACO (Chamber of Commerce)
are going to offer “local” status to divers. Any diver
with a PADI, NAUI or SSI certification card will be
given local discounts by presenting that card at
participating businesses. The discount on the
Mexico Water Jets ferry from Playa del Carmen to
Cozumel is 45%.

The goal is to show divers that they are important
to Cozumel and that Cozumel needs their help in
spreading the word about the magnificence of
Cozumel’s reefs and the importance of reef
conservation world-wide.

Information about the program is on the Swim for
the Reef web site. Click on “diver’s specials”.
The discount from Mexico Water Jets is only available
by going online to this page.

The storm will miss us and head to the west of us, but
we will still get the rain and wind.

Predictions are that we will get 4 to 6 inches of rain
and winds 20 to 30 miles per hour.

It has started to rain here and the winds are picking up.

Here is the latest on the storm path:

Looks like we are going to dodge the main part of
the storm.

We will still get a whole lot of rain and some strong
winds. We may get some flooding depending on the amount
of rain.
