Explore the Vibrant Coral Reefs of Cozumel

Come dive Cozumel’s world-famous reefs with Pixel Expeditions. Skip ferries and taxis, the reefs are just a short ride from Playa del Carmen. Drift by coral gardens, walls, and swim-throughs that are alive with turtles, rays, and colour. You can also explore the C-53 wreck.

Your Cozumel Day Trip with Pixel Expeditions

At Pixel Expeditions, we believe Cozumel diving should feel personal, easy, and unforgettable. That’s why we keep trips small and relaxed, never more than four divers per guide, so you enjoy individual attention, unhurried time underwater, and a lighter footprint on the reef.

Your day begins with a convenient pick-up in Playa del Carmen. Instead of juggling ferries and taxis, you’ll step straight onto our boat and head across to Cozumel. On the way, your guide will brief you on the dive sites, currents, and marine life you’re likely to encounter. Most trips include two dives, with sites chosen to match the day’s conditions and your experience level. You might drift along a dramatic wall, explore a shallow coral garden, or descend on Cozumel’s iconic C-53 wreck, now home to thriving reef life. The island’s effortless drift diving style makes every descent feel like gliding through an aquarium.

Much of Cozumel lies within the Cozumel Marine Park, a protected area where decades of conservation have allowed fish populations and coral reefs to flourish. Nurse sharks can often be seen resting on sandy patches, eagle rays sweep by in formation, and parrotfish graze among hard and soft corals that remain vibrant and healthy.

We are proud to contribute to this legacy by diving responsibly. Our eco-friendly practices include small groups, low-impact diving techniques, and reducing single-use plastics wherever possible. For us, it’s simple: we care for the ocean because it gives us everything we love.

Every dive in Cozumel reveals new surprises: coral overhangs, schools of angelfish, and sea turtles gliding past. Whether you’re an experienced diver or new to the Caribbean underwater world, Cozumel diving is a must-do adventure that will leave lasting memories.
