Coral Restoration Tours and Courses
Scuba Prerequisites
These are standard courses for essential scuba skills. All our specialty courses require an Open Water Diver certification and Research Diver requires the Advanced Open Water. For your convenience, we offer these prerequisite courses right before the Coral Reef Conservation and Research Diver courses. So you can get your prerequisite certification and then continue right into the speciality course that you are interested in.
If you are in Cozumel or the Riviera Maya for a longer period of time, feel free to space out your courses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if there is bad weather during my course?
Bad weather can force us to cancel your dive. Safety is most important while diving. When the North winds become too severe, the Cozumel harbormaster closes the port to all underwater activities, cancelling your dive.
If the dive is canceled, updates will be sent to participants via email or WhatsApp as soon as possible, with options provided to either reschedule your course or receive a refund.
For multi-day courses we can usually accommodate bad weather by modifying the itinerary to teach the theory portions when the port is closed.
Where are the courses conducted?
Our coral nursery is located at Villa Blanca reefs in Cozumel. It is easily accessible by swimming out from shore.
Lessons are conducted at our waterfront lab behind Sunset Beach Club. Its easy to see from the street and all the taxis know its location. Once you arrive at Sunset the signage will direct you to our lab.
Why should I take my course with the Cozumel Coral Reef Restoration Program?
You will be learning about one of the most critically endangered ecosystems on our planet while doing something good.
As a non-profit, all proceeds from our courses go to sustaining & scaling our coral restoration work.
We understand you have many options during your vacation, and we really appreciate you for picking to spend time with us!
I have my own equipment. Can I use them?
You are welcome to bring your own gear! All costumers can use our in house equipment (BCD, regulator, mask, fins, and weights), so if you can use whatever you need if you don't have a complete set.
