Lying off the coast of the Yucatan in the brilliant,
clear waters of the western Caribbean, is the island
of Cozumel. Rich in Mayan history, the island is blessed
with refreshing trade winds, sunshine, and some of the
finest underwater experiences in the world.
Day to Day Life on the Island
Our Activities Coordinators will keep students busy outside
of class with water and land-based activities. IIf you would
like to swim with dolphins, learn how to golf, or go deep
sea fishing, then Cozumel is the place for you!
Our hotel looks onto one of the finest coral reefs
in the Caribbean, and great snorkelling and swimming are available
right outside our doors. Students who are scuba-certified
may opt to go immediately into the core diving program. Students
wishing to become certified may take part in the optional
certification course that will qualify them for open-water
diving within the first week. Optional excursions will include
the ancient city of Chichen Itza and Tulum.
