Why Scuba Diving Vacation Packages In The Riviera Maya?

The Riviera Maya has the best diving in Mexico. It's why our dive vacation packages are so popular.

First of all, we have direct access to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef.  The largest barrier reef outside of Australia.  Which National Geographic describes as more remarkable than the Great Barrier Reef.  So, our diving vacation packages always include some reef diving.

Second, the ocean currents on the Caribbean coast are tranquil.  And the coral reef provides added protection.  So, the crystal clear, azure water of the Caribbean offers idyllic diving conditions.  Plus, on average, it is 10F warmer on the Riviera Maya coast than on Mexico's Pacific coast.  So instead of diving in heavy wet or dry suits, sometimes only a rash guard is needed.

There are dazzling arrays of coral formations to explore. Far more impressive than the coral formations you can see while snorkeling. These support more than 65 species of stony coral, 350 species of mollusk, and more than 500 fish species, including sea turtles, whale sharks, bull sharks, nurse sharks, and the largest population of manatees in the world. Along the shores, mangroves provide a habitat for fish and shorebirds. Also, the mangroves protect coastal areas from damage from storms. Making scuba diving here a remarkable experience.

And with 6,000 cenotes, the Riviera Maya is the best place for cavern and cave diving in the world. So why not include some cenote dives in your customized diving vacation package? One of the significant advantages of having cenotes so close to the ocean is that on the odd occasion when the weather in the sea isn't great, you do the cenote diving in your dive vacation packages. Because diving conditions in a cenote are mainly unaffected by the weather.

And in this part of Mexico, we have an excellent diving infrastructure with many PADI-qualified Dive Masters. They can guide or assist you in the planning and execution of dives. For example, the Akumal Dive Center, established in 1975, is the oldest Riviera Maya scuba diving center. Since 1975, they have overseen and guided well over a million dives! They are our exclusive dive partner.


"Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful staff. Quick, comfortable boats. Good gear. Training with experienced instructors. Always reliable." - Don M.


And don't forget you are in the heart of the Riviera Maya. We have spectacular white sand beaches and glorious cenotes to relax in. There are also great restaurants, beach bars, and beach clubs to relax in. Or, on the days you need to decompress before traveling, you can take a Mayan Ruin tour and soak up some history. That is if you're tired of the beach!


Spectacular Riviera Maya

The Riviera Maya is Mexico's #1 vacation destination. It is serviced by Cancun International Airport, which has direct flights from over 100 cities worldwide. Making it easy and convenient to travel here. Our dive vacation packages include transportation from and to Cancun International Airport.

The #1 attraction of the Riviera Maya are the spectacular white sand beaches and the warm crystal-clear Caribbean ocean. With 100 km of coastline, there are many stunning beaches. And with fabulous weather and a warm tropical climate all year round, there are plenty of opportunities to go to the beach!

"Absolutely one of the best places I have stayed while on a Diving trip in the 10 years! The accommodations are "top notch" and very modern. The location is perfect for the area and the pool and jacuzzi at the condominium are beautiful and relaxing. Also, having a Washer/Dryer in the unit is exceptionally convenient. Also, you will have all the information you need for a smooth check-in, as almost all questions are answered before you even arrive. And, if you have any questions, the are immediately answered by either the owner or the very helpful staff. I will ABSOLUTELY be staying here again!" Tony April 2022

Yet, with 25 million visitors a year, there's much more to the Riviera Maya than just the beaches. So, when you're not diving, there's plenty of things to do, including adventure and theme parks, festivals, cenotes, Mayan ruins, great shopping, and restaurants. And you can play golf, go big game fishing, zipline at night, watch turtles hatching, or go to a dinner show. If you want more water activities, there's stand-up paddle boarding, kite surfing, windsurfing, and parasailing, too. Or there's relaxing in a hammock or on a sunbed for an afternoon siesta.

The building has a lovely pool and a rooftop terrace with jacuzzi hot tubs.  The view from here is fabulous.  An excellent place for a siesta in one of the hammocks.  To the east is the Caribbean ocean – great for sunrises.  And to the west, you have incredible sunsets over the Mayan jungle.  There is also a BBQ in the palapa at the pool for guests to use.  And there are 2 communal bicycles available for guests as well.  Sirenis is a friendly, safe community to walk, ride, or jog around.
