Overview

MUSA Cancun is a very successful conservation project, one of the first of its class. In order to maintain the natural reefs, the local and federal authorities and dive shops in the area made an effort and sunk over 400 statues to make an artificial reef, After MUSA was sunk, Manchones Reef recovered over 40% of its natural beauty.

We combine two of the best things to do in Cancun: dive and visit the world-famous Underwater Museum (MUSA).

It doesn’t matter if you are not a PADI-certified diver; you can take the class and join us on this incredible adventure.

Discover Scuba Diving is PADI`s first step to becoming a diver. This dive lesson in Cancun is perfect for those who want to feel how it feels to breathe underwater.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: How soon can I fly in an airplane after Scuba diving?

    A: Participants in the MUSA Diving For Beginners in Cancun cannot fly in an airplane within 24 hours of their dive. The main concern with scuba diving and flying is decompression sickness (DCS). Your body needs adequate time during an ascent to off-gas excess nitrogen, or you can form bubbles in your bloodstream, possibly leading to DCS. Read more Jun 2024
