Most dives start from the north harbor and follow the wall on a current-driven drift, so this site suits experienced divers and can be shut down by harbor-master closures.

About Puerto de Abrigo

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.
