Diving in PUERTO MORELOS, Mexico.




The Riviera Maya has a lot to offer to enthusiastic divers.
Our dive center - PHANTOM DIVERS - is located in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, but we also organize fascinating tours to other places such as to the small village called Puerto Morelos, located between Playa del Carmen and Cancun. 
Just few people know this marine park which makes it even more interesting: the reefs are very intact and there is a huge and colorful quantity of sea life inhabiting the beautiful reefs like CUEVONES, PICUDAS, CARACOL, LA BOCANA, EL TUNEL, LOS JARDINES, LA PARED, ACUARIO among others.



Among connoisseurs Puerto Morelos is known for one of the nicest ship wrecks in the area, the C-56 Juan Escutia. 
There are large schools of fish wondering around this ship wreck and the C-56 is habitat for different kinds of corals covering it. 
The ship was sunk in the year 2000 at a depth of 30 meters / 100 feet with the purpose of creating an artificial coral reef. 


If you like new experiences you will love this!!!

COME TO HAVE A CLOSER LOOK!

When it comes to diving 
most divers like to talk about bigger marine animals 
they saw on their dives, such as sharks, barracudas, rays, morays or turtles just to mention a few. 
And there is no doubt that it is amazing to see those beautiful creatures. 

But as you will see it is definitely worth to have a closer look while diving 
to discover the tiny little animals living in the reefs or 
to search for the not so small but camouflaged animals in the ocean.

So next time you go diving watch out for those little beauties!

Little squat anemone shrimp

They can usually be found on corals and diverse anemones always in close proximity to its host.
Usually seen in pairs, but also in groups of six to eight.
