How to Get There
Flying to Cozumel is easy thanks to many visiting tourists. Several airlines offer direct flights into Cozumel International Airport (CZM), and from there it's a quick shuttle or shared taxi ride to the dive resorts. If taking the taxi, it's necessary to pay for the ride inside the airport before walking outside. There are two rates depending on whether the resort is close to town or further south (about $9 USD).
The other alternative is to fly into Cancun and then take a ferry down to Cozumel. This also presents the opportunity to visit Playa Del Carmen - a great option for those who would like to cover a bit more ground or dive the Cenotes.
Dive Overview

Dive Information
Dive Overview
The diving in Cozumel is comprised primarily of drift dives along beautiful coral reefs. Two-tank morning dives are standard, generally starting with a deeper reef in the Palancar region of the Marine Park. Here divers will descend to 60-120 feet to drift along massive walls, explore swim-throughs and channels and take in all the colorful soft coral formations.
Diving in Cozumel The second dive is typically on a shallower reef closer to the resort with depth in the 30-60 range, where ambient light mixes with coral heads and gardens of sponges, gorgonians and great fish life. Beach dives present underwater photographers with the time to search for critters with their macro lens. Visibility range is typically 100ft+ year-round and water temperature is between 75- 85F. The weather is tropical with little seasonal variation.
Divers will find eagle rays in the winter months, reef sharks in the summer months and turtles and nurse sharks year-round.
Cozumel is home to the Splendid Toadfish, which can be found under ledges. Grunts, parrotfish, black grouper, angelfish, tangs, moray eels, lobsters and much other marine life can be found on the reefs in Cozumel. There are also juvenile drum fish, seahorses, anemone fish, colorful nudibranchs, arrow crabs and many other small critters.

Dive Center Information
dressel divers Overview
Dressel Divers is the company chosen by the prestigious Iberostar Hotel chain for the last twenty years to run diving activities on the premise of its luxury hotels in the Caribbean, to ensure that this service has the same quality as the hotels. Dressel Divers have a dive center directly on the beach of Iberostar Cozumel Hotel.
Dive Center Features
Dressel Divers has rental equipment that feels like it's every diver's own! The dive equipment is of premium quality, regularly maintained and replaced with new and innovative products over time. A wide variety of gear is offered so that persons of all statures and ages will find something that suits them.
The dive centers include state of the art equipment rooms staffed by employees who wash, disinfect and store client's rental equipment. They also include a place to store personal dive equipment. Our cylinders, filling stations and compressors are operated and maintained by well-trained qualified staff in strict compliance with the generally accepted industry standards and all instructions specific to the brands used.
The boats are exclusively designed and built for Dressel Divers under the strict supervision of Javier Ibran, a lifelong diver and the company's founding President. Dive boats are tailored to provide ample space for equipment and clients, as well as an easy entry and exit into the water for divers.
Cylinders are provided on-board the boats, the majority of which are catamarans or trimarans (to limit movement due to waves and therefore seasickness).
Boats, furthermore, are equipped with a sunroof, fresh drinking water, a radio, a GPS device, oxygen, spare diving equipment, and everything else deemed mandatory by the United States Coast Guard. The engines, all top brands, are subject to ongoing monitoring and servicing by in-house mechanics. Boat captains, moreover, all have First Aid medical training. Last but not least, with very few exceptions all boats have double engines.
Almost all the staff obtained their professional diving qualifications with our own PADI Career Development Center. They are therefore trained within our own philosophy and in harmony with the objectives of Dressel Divers. They will give you not only a great dive but also a very safe one!
