    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    San Toribio offers a drift dive over a sand channel dotted with coral heads, a nice change from Cozumel's steep walls. Keep an eye out for southern stingrays resting in the sand and green morays tucked into crevices. The current here is usually mild, making it a good spot for divers getting comfortable with Cozumel's famous drift diving.

    Safety Notes
