Open Water Tech Diving in Playa del Carmen

If you’re ready to go beyond recreational scuba, Open Water Tech Diving in Playa del Carmen offers some of the most rewarding and advanced diving experiences in the world. These deep reef dives take place along the spectacular Cantile Wall in the Cozumel Channel — a nearly vertical underwater cliff that drops from 130 ft (40 m) to 1200 ft (400 m).

This type of diving is ideal for certified technical divers who want to explore beyond standard depth limits. In these crystal-clear waters, you’ll encounter massive sponges, unique marine life, and the excitement of deep drift diving.
