Airports - Best airport to fly into is Cozumel (CZM), the ride from the airport to the hotel is quick and inexpensive. Alternatively you can fly into Cancun (CUN), but then you have to take a bus, taxi or shuttle to the ferry in Playa Del Carmen, then the ferry over to Cozumel and finally a taxi to the hotel. That will add about 2-3 hours to your trip. 

Cozumel Hotel and Resort Wyndham is a 180 room all-inclusive resort that boasts the friendliest staff, largest pool on the island, an expansive beach club and one of the premier dive shops on the island, Dive Paradise. Cozumel Hotel & Resort, Trademark Collection By Wyndham is one mile away from the charming and recently renovated center square where you will find dozens of authentic local shops and restaurants and bars. Enjoy the abundance of on-premise activities such as snorkeling, kayaking, pool games and shore diving.

All certified divers get a free checkout tank to dial in weights and dust the rust off their amazing diving skills. 

Private 1 hour welcome cocktail reception on Saturday June 17th, with snacks at the beach club, special table for a group farewell dinner and a group photo. 

YOGA 

We will have a yoga instructor on site during the trip that will offer sunset yoga for four days out of the week there. Take one or all four sessions and feel better and more relaxed. Heal your body and mind with Pranayama and Asana yoga practices. 

Keep your mind focused in the present moment and respond with control. Let us integrate Yoga into your dive, to not only feel more confident and at ease, but to make the experience more vivid and meaningful.

Yoga is an ancient practice that uses gentle physical postures (Asanas), and breathing practices (Pranayama), relaxation techniques to promote a healthy body, encourage a calm and composed mind, and create a foundation for heightened awareness and a peaceful state of being.

The physical postures in Yoga help strengthen and limber the body, which reduces the risk of injuries, as well as prevents over-exertion, which can lead to breathlessness and anxiety. Being in better shape makes diving less strenuous, and therefore more safe and enjoyable.

The Pranayama breathing techniques practiced in our Yoga sessions encourage the body to use full capacity of the lungs and absorb and use oxygen more efficiently. Slow, controlled breathing facilitates a relaxed body and mind, improves air consumption, and can be used as a tool to fine tune your buoyancy.

Please note that there is a charge for each yoga session.
