I guided an exciting Skin and Scuba Diving tour to Cozumel Island, Mexico, from October 7 through 15, 1998. We had 18 scuba divers enjoy 10 boat dives and an optional night dive. Unlimited beach diving was available and many took advantage of this option. We offered enriched air nitrox up to 40 percent oxygen. We experienced drift (current) diving, deep diving, underwater photography, advanced underwater photography, videography, research, ocean reef ecology (underwater naturalist), boat and night diving to mentioned a few. All of the open water certified divers qualified for their advanced open water diver certification.
