Health and Safety

Visit your health professional at least 4 to 6 weeks before your trip to check whether you need any vaccinations or other preventive measures. Drug-related violence in Mexico has increased over recent years. Make sure you research your destination thoroughly.

Be Aware

There’s a lot of great diving to be had around Mexico, for every type of scuba traveler. When choosing your destination, make sure that you consult with local dive pros and pick the right area. For instance, diving in the Yucatan Peninsula is going to be very different from diving in Baja.

Costs

Mexico is generally very affordable, but the Yucatan is slightly more expensive than other parts of this country. Budget travelers can survive on around $30 - $40 per day. The price for 2-Tank certified dive excursion starts from $75.
