Description

Want to experience Cozumel’s most exciting and challenging dive sites? Felipe Xicotencatl Wreck, Punta Sur, Devil´s Throat, Cathedral, Colombia Deep - Take advantage of our Experienced Diver Program (EDP).

Our boats make pick-ups at Dive Paradise locations and affiliate resorts: Hotel Barracuda, Hotel Cozumel & Resort, Villablanca and Casa Del Mar.  You’ll be in the care of a certified, in-water Divemaster guide whose primary duty is to lead you on safe, pleasurable dives.  Includes tanks, weights, belt, purified drinking water, soft drinks and snacks.

Scheduled daily, 8:30AM – 12:30PM.   Reserve at least 24 hours in advance.

Your safety remains our number one priority at Dive Paradise, so please note the following:

Requirements:

  • You must first book a regular Caribbean or Express trip to occur prior your EDP trip as a 'warm-up' dive with our Divemasters.  Demonstrated proficiency on prior dives with Dive Paradise is required.
  • Documented minimum of 50 logged dives
  • Advanced Certification is mandatory.  EDP divers must be skilled in managing air consumption, depth and buoyancy. You must be capable of diving in swift currents, caverns, and other rigorous conditions.
  • A computer is a must. Either bring your own (you must be proficient in its use) or rent from Dive Paradise (Divemasters can show you how to use rentals).
  • * If your last dive was more than 1 year ago, we require a beach check-out dive (using a welcome tank or a rental tank) with a buddy or a Private Divemaster ($44) before your EDP trip.  Sorry, no solo divers allowed.
  • * If your last dive was more than 2 years ago, we require a Refresher course with an Instructor before your EDP trip (before you dive).

* Why are the Check-out dives & Refresher courses required in these cases? 

  1. Our liability release states that divers must comply with basic safety rules and PADI standards of diving, which clearly state that a diver is required to keep "current". A diver who has not been diving within a year is NOT current by PADI standards. A diver who has not been diving in two or more years requires a Refresher Course.
  2. We must verify that each diver's experience/health/fitness meet the standards for this specialty trip, both for operational efficiency and for everyone's safety.
  3. Dive Paradise takes pride in following standards - we are known for being the safest dive operation in the region! 

 

Note:  this trip has a minimum of four divers.  Be sure to check in with the main shop at least 24 hours before your scheduled dive to confirm if your trip has met the minimum to run. If we haven’t filled enough spots, you will have the following options:

  1. Cover the cost of the vacant diver spot on the boat
  2. Re-schedule your dive for next best available trip
  3. Rain check for future diving with Dive Paradise
  4. Refund for your trip
