About Coquitos
Coquitos is a shallow Tulum reef with bright coral structure, short swim-throughs, and a reef profile that stays rewarding without turning into a deep day. It is the kind of site that works for newer divers and still keeps experienced divers busy because the coral, channels, and fish life stay close together. On calmer days it feels easy and colorful; when the sea roughens, the same reef asks for more patience and cleaner planning.
