Riviera Maya

Spread along the fascinating Riveria Maya on Mexico’s Caribbean coast, Pro Dive International is based at the all-inclusive resorts of Allegro Playacar 4*, Occidental at Xcaret Destination 5*, and Dreams Puerto Aventuras 4*, as well as the Catalonia resorts of Riviera Maya & Yucatan Beach 4*, Royal Tulum 5*, Playa Maroma 5*, and Costa Mujeres All Suites 5*, and finally the adults-only Royal Hideaway Playacar 5*.

Best known for its freshwater cenotes, the Riviera Maya offers some of the best cavern and cave diving in the world. The region’s karst limestone topography is riddled with interconnecting sinkholes, shrouded in vegetation, and many with collapsed ceilings where the sunlight filters through to the gloomy waters below. Diving or snorkeling in this environment is a fascinating and truly breathtaking experience.

The Riviera Maya also offers some excellent reef diving and a large variety of unique marine creatures not found anywhere else. It is possible to dive with bull sharks from Playa del Carmen between December and March, and this is also the optimum season for swimming with sailfish during their annual migration along the coast of Isla Mujeres. Keeping up with the fastest fish in the ocean might seem like an impossible task, but watching them corral their prey into baitballs and dart in to snatch a meal is an exciting experience and well worth the wait. During the summer months of June through to September, whale sharks frequent the coastal waters of the Riviera Maya, and swimming and snorkeling with them is top of many travelers’ wish list. Sightings of whale sharks are almost guaranteed, in fact, Pro Dive International offers a ‘free repeat trip’ should they not be seen.

Dominican Republic

Boasting a wide range of marine environments and some exciting fish life, diving in the Dominican Republic is enticingly varied. The south of the island offers calm, clear waters with little to no current making it perfect for beginners and snorkelers, while stunning coral reefs, mangroves, and deep wrecks and caves provide a challenge for advanced divers. The full array of Caribbean reef life can be spotted around the island’s tropical waters with a variety of pelagic species, rays, turtles, and dolphins, as well as trumpetfish, butterflyfish, porcupinefish, and numerous other reef dwellers.
