North-side wall drift at Cozumel's Puerto Abrigo marina.
Puerto de Abrigo is a north-side wall dive at the marina entrance, where the drop-off runs north toward Cantarel past Coral Princess. It is usually planned as a fast-moving wall drift for experienced divers, with barracuda, grunts, surgeonfish, and seasonal eagle ray encounters along the current line.

Safety Notes
Frequent strong current can move divers quickly along the wall, and the marina setting adds boat-traffic awareness near entry and pickup. Plan this as an experienced-diver drift with active surface signaling and local guidance.
Access Restrictions
When the Harbor Master closes Cozumel for rough weather, boat diving and even shore water activity can be suspended, so same-day port status should be checked before planning Puerto de Abrigo.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
