Any charters do 3 tank dives in cozumel?

Wondering if there are any dive charters that offer 3 tank dives?
TIA

Haven't really seen anything about 3 tank charters but it's easy to get 3+ dives in with an op. Below is a link to a spreadsheet to give you some ideas (post #125 is last I updated it.).

I guess I need to find out how to pin it! Let me explain how moderators will look upon such a request. Pinned threads are for questions that A) get asked a lot and B) for an answer that is always the same. This thread meets part A but not part B. We always lock pinned threads, meaning you...

Dive Paradise does a 3-tank early AM trip. Great reviews from the folks that did it the last day of the recent SB Invasion:

Cock-A-Doodle 3-Tank Dive Trip - Dive Paradise

Up with the sunrise in Cozumel for three spectacular drift dives. It’s a unique opportunity to experience something few divers get to witness… the “changing of the guard” on the reef, when the night shift checks out and the day crew checks in.

When I have chartered a whole boat with Aldora they had no problem throwing a 3rd tank in there for everyone and just staying out until we were done.

Doing back-to-back trips with 3P all week and they are just going to drop us at a beach club while they turn the boat around (or we can ride back to the marina and eat lunch while they do)

I think most ops are open to doing 3 tanks if demand is there. If you are solo or just a a pair of divers most ops aren’t going to create a 3 tank trip just for you , but if you have 4 or more divers a lot of ops will make the 3 tank happen.

I am pretty sure Pelagic Ventures (the op I normally use ) sometimes does 3 tanks if demand is there but my memory on it is a little fuzzy because it has been a while since I dove in the morning.

I'd personally love if someone started running 3 tank dives. I've done the 4 tank thing with 3P and its just a long exhausting day. Running back to town for more tanks is inefficient and a waste of gas.

But I understand there is not much desire for this.

Take a look at the three tank "adventure dive" with Aldora. We did three sites way out north of the island. I shot my first lionfish and had fresh ceviche with chips and salsa after the second dive. One of the beauties of three tanks is it made it worthwhile to take the long ride to the north. We saw sites nobody else goes to and had 4 hours of entertaining dives with the HP120 tanks. They also gave us each a nautilus to use, cause you don’t want to get lost out there.
