AKUMAL DIVE ADVENTURES
INFORMATION

The Diving - Diving in Akumal takes place on the world's second largest barrier reef. You will find abundant coral and marine life along three different major spur and groove formations. The deep reef starts at a depth of approximately 60 to 70 feet and extends out in finger like ridges, and drops to between 100 and 140 feet of beautiful canyons.

The Reefs - A second reef ranges from 50 to 70 feet in depth, making this a perfect choice for your second dive of the day. The shallow portion of the reef runs between 25 to 45 feet in depth with large Elkhorn formations. This area is ideal for photography and serves as an underwater "classroom" for students participating in training dives.

Our Approach- Akumal Dive Adventures prides itself in a non-invasive approach to scuba diving. We encourage visitors to enjoy this underwater paradise without impacting or touching the fragile formations. Accompanying each dive trip is our professional boat crew, including a licensed captain and PADI dive master or instructor.

 

The Boats: Our 26 foot Marbat dive boat with twin outboard motors will whisk you to the numerous and nearby dive sites along the coast. The 25 foot Atila ponga style boat with bimini top is also ideal for a full day's charter combining diving, fishing, and snorkeling.

The Water - Water temperatures average between 84°F in the summer months and 78°F in the winter months. Visibility ranges between 50 to 150 feet due to the slight current that keeps the water ever-changing and clear.

Your Safety - Your safety is of utmost importance to us. Akumal Dive Adventures carries a full range of state of the art rental equipment, including Sherwood and Scubapro regulators and buoyancy compensators.

When sea conditions do not permit ocean diving, the areas close to Akumal provide a number of fresh water springs for the exciting experience of cavern and cave diving.
