The Cozumel City Council through the Local Tourism Board and the National Marine Park of Cozumel, have organized the Lionfish Hunting Safari as part of sustainable activities to control this invasive species that is threatening the stability of the marine ecosystem. This species has no natural predators and therefore is attacking every other Caribbean species. There will also be a Gastronomic Show to promote the consumption of this species.
The price of the Safari is $195 usd and includes:
Technical training for the use of appropriate capture tools*
Six scuba tanks (two per day)
A T-shirt of "Official Lionfish Hunter"

5 tickets for the Gastronomic show
For the closing a snack of Lionfish and two free drinks at Señor Frogs
We suggest that you check the special rates that are being offered by the participating hotels and restaurants: http://lionfishhuntingsafari.blogspot.com/ as well as the airlines and the event program.
Join us and become an Official Lionfish Hunter in a sustainable way to support Cozumel's reefs.
* So far the capture tool authorized for this safari is the ELF (Eradication Lion Fish). Capture tools will be provided by the dive center through the support of the Cozumel Reefs National Park.
