About Las Palmas
Las Palmas is an easy Cozumel reef with a broad sloping profile, coral heads, and sponge growth that make it a good second-tank site. The current can change direction, but the dive stays approachable for newer divers who want a slower reef search, good visibility, and plenty of small marine life. The main planning choice is a calm-water window and a guide who can manage the drift.
