We were in Cancun last year and it was some work getting over to Cozumel for diving.
Scorpio Divers in Cancun got me to Playa to dive with Dive Balam. If I were in Cancun
(which I wont ever be again) I would dive with Scorpio Divers.
It appears that Cancun caters to Mexican Nationals, Cuzumel in more for the Americans.
We were treated very well by Apple Vacation Staff and the IberoStar Cancun but I’m not rushing back.
If you go to Mexico Cozumel diving is a must.
Given a choice, for a Family Vacation, I would opt for Beaches Turks and Caicos, or Beaches Negril, I’ve been there.
Diving, snorkeling water skiing. all included.
Your wife will enjoy the service and relaxing on the beach and there are plenty of Family and kid activities.
And they wont feel so abandoned when you walk to the dive shop to do two to three dives a day.
Once you get over the sticker shock you’ll see it’s a pretty good value.
We have always received top shelf service from Beaches and Sandals Resorts.
