Punta Sur - incredible topography... huge caverns. Many divers surfaces screaming with joy. 90-100 ft. (Intermediate)<br><br>Punta Sur II - Home of "the devil's throat". This sequel is every bit as fascinating as the original. 90-120 ft.(Advanced) <br><br> Barracuda and San Juan Reefs are younger, more virgin reefs. Barracuda's Wall and the "Mountains" of San Juan offer little exciting topography. These are definitely not for the novice or overly confident divers. Currents of 3-10 knots run straight out to sea and if you lose your dive group, your next stop may be Cuba. These 2 reefs can be dived safely only by small groups of experienced current divers utilizing a hand held ascent line tied to float which the boat can keep sight of and follow. Depths range from 70 -110 ft. Cameras must be left topside. (Expert) <br><br>Villablanca Wall - Different! Instead of the huge stony coral buttresses, so typical of these southern deep reefs, the sloping wall here is dominated by huge sponges, gorgonians, and big schools of jacks and angelfish. It is recommended that novices make this one from a boat, but this site can be dived by more experienced divers from the beach. 50-100 ft. (Intermediate) <br><br>Virgin Wall - Due to heavy currents preventing local divemasters from bringing large groups of reef wreckers, this area remains pristine and lush. 2-4 different dives to see it all. If I had to choose my very favorite dive In Cozumel, it would be one of these. Which? Thank you, I won't tell. 40-130 ft. (Advanced) <br><br>
