About Tikila Beach
Tikila Beach is a shallow shore reef just south of downtown Cozumel with a sandy entry, a gentle slope and a coral restoration area close by. It works well for training, night dives and macro photography, and the protected reef structure keeps the site friendly for relaxed route-finding. Regular seahorse sightings and other small Caribbean critters make it a strong beginner-friendly photo dive. The artificial reef and coral-covered structures add enough structure to keep each pass interesting.
