Welcome to Scubaboard,
On my last trip to Cozamel we used Blue Bubble divers and had a very nice time.
The boat was smallish, but the crew was friendly and helpful.
The seas were pretty rough that day actually
and we had a wonderful drift dive

Welcome to Scubaboard! Cozumel is such a popular diving destination and I'm sure we all have our recommendations, Deep Blue. But, you should go over to the Cozumel Forum and look around or post your question there. Good luck.
Welcome to ScubaBoard! :happywave
The Cozumel would be the best place to ask as Scott recommended.
Dive safe!

Hi there Chocoholic, welcome to the board.
Sorry I can't help you out about "Dive with Alison." When I was there in March I used "Dive with Martin." He uses smaller quicker boats and there were never more then about 8 divers on board for any of the trips I was on. Pickups were early in the morning and right at the hotel peir, 7:45 most days and we were out at the sites before any other boats. SI's were spent on one of the nearby beaches and there was always lots of water on board and usually some sort of fresh fruit to munch on, overall it was a good experience. :yelclap:
As for hotels, I can only tell you where we wouldn't stay again...... at the Fiesta Americana. Nice rooms, except for the
sewer smells. Good food, if you don't mind recycle. Pool activities for the non-diving spouse.....NOT! They announced the pool activities for the day every morning but hardly ever carried through with them. I could go on but I won't. Remember though that this is my own personal experience and everyone is different, some people might even like this hotel. :06:

I spent a lot of time checking this board prior to my first trip to Cozumel.Alison answered all of my e-mails which is alot better than some dive shops that are talked about alot here.Chocoholic:
When we got there she was flexable and friendly.My ten year old son dove with us some days,Alison put an extra DM in the water so the more advanced divers wouldn't have to stay so shallow.The boat was in new looking shape and the DM and Captain helped us do everything.
I did have to take a cab to the marina every morning,$3.00 US .This did save 20 or 30 min ride each morning to the dive sites and I did get a ride back to my Hotel every day.
Go to Alisons web site and check it out for yourself.I will use her again when I go back to Cozumel.
Hotel Cozumel has the largest pool in Cozumel and it was plenty warm in April.They even have a small pool over on the beach side to cool down in if you get to hot.We got a air hotel package from Bay Adventures from Raleigh NC for around $725.00 AI and booked our dives on the side.
It did not look like the people diving with the in house dive op Dive Paradice recieved near the personal treatment we did.
Hope you have a great first time in Cozumel and welcom to the board!!
