About Koox Diving Playa del Carmen
Koox Diving is a PADI 5-Star dive center on 10th Avenue in downtown Playa del Carmen, built around the philosophy that every diver — whether brand-new or cave-certified — deserves a personalized, unhurried experience. The name "Ko'ox" comes from the Mayan word meaning "let's go," and the team lives up to it with daily departures to reefs, cenotes, and Cozumel.
Their roster includes morning and afternoon two-tank reef dives, cenote excursions to Dos Ojos, Chac Mool, and Dreamgate, snorkeling tours with sea turtles, and full PADI certification tracks from Open Water through Cave Diver. They also run Cozumel day trips by private boat — no ferry crowds — and seasonal whale shark and bull shark programs. Equipment is well-maintained Aqualung gear, and groups max out at four divers per instructor for safety and quality.
Koox Diving has earned a reputation as one of the highest-rated dive shops on TripAdvisor and Google for the Riviera Maya. Their multilingual staff speaks English, Spanish, French, and Dutch, making them a natural fit for the international travellers who flock to Playa del Carmen year-round.
