Dalila, very colorful, and Francesa for big groupers. Both shallow dives.

Columbia !!! It always delivers...
from my log ....
"We descended onto Columbia reef. The DM spotted a turtle at the end of the first swim thru. Yay, a turtle! I looked from the turtle over to a couple of big-a$$ groupers and saw a GIANT green moray eel appear, freely swimming, looking for shelter. OH WOW !! Then, as I rose up over the coral head, there was a big eagle ray swimming over the top at the same time, closer than I've ever seen. By this time I'm shrieking in my reg I'm so excited. Had to take a moment to calm down so I didn't suck all my air since all this happened in the first 10 minutes or so. A day to remember. "
For a shallow dive: The Gardens of Ixchel with DM Victor Brito. Also... it's overrun and a cliche but Paradise is a beautiful dive. Always find my little morays there.

There is not a bad place to dive but my personal favorites are Columbia Deep and Columbia Shallows...can't beat the shore diving out from Hotel Coz and Villa Blanca. Have fun!
Night dive on Paradise is a must see. Can't remember a bad dive, but 06 after the hurricane some of the reefs were pretty bare. My first Cozumel dive was Palancar Gardens, so it is a favorite. I'm a critter watcher and have always enjoyed Dalila and Bolones de Chankanaab

My favorite dive pairs from various trips (deep then shallow):
Columbia Pinnacles then Palancar Gardens
Paso Del Cedral Wall (ripping current made this really fun!) then Tormentos
Columbia Pinnacles (my personal favorite) then Punta Dalila shallows
Santa Rosa Wall (my second favorite) then Paradise Reef
Columbia Pinnacles then Palancar Gardens

My favorite Cozumel dive changes every time I roll off the boat.
