Thumbs up Great Diving!

I wanted to post an unsolicited follow-up on my recent trip to Cozumel diving with Blue XT Sea Diving.

We just got back from three nights at the Fiesta Americana yesterday. We had booked a total of 6 dives with Christi and Blue XT Sea.

In a nutshell, it was probably one of the best (albeit short) dive trips I've ever taken. We had a limited amount of time on the island and the Blue XT Sea crew really helped us make the most of it.

Pedro Pablo and Mago picked us up on the Fiesta Americana pier the afternoon of our arrival and took us straight to Palancar Caves for our first dive. For the second dive, we went to Punta Tunich. Great formations and swim throughs on the first, lots of marine life on the second.

The next morning, they took us to Punta Sur and we dove Devil's Throat. This was probably one of my single favorite dives ever. Afterwards, we did Cedral Wall.. also very nice.

The morning of the last day, we dove with Blanca and she took us to Santa Rosa Wall, which was an excellent dive, followed by Paradise Reef - very chill and relaxing. In fact, I think this last dive rates as my longest dive in terms of duration as we were underwater a full hour and a half.

All of the other dives were at least an hour long (shorter if you were running low on air). There was on average a total of 3-4 of us diving on the boat (not including the DM) on any given dive.

During the dives, we saw lots of turtles (big ones), nurse sharks, huge lobsters, sting rays, flounder, grouper, eels, barracuda, and lots of interesting little fish.

I was thoroughly impressed with how hard the crew worked to take care of all of our needs and make us comfortable on ever dive. Probably the highest level of dive service we've ever had.

Thanks for a great time!
