Mexico’s Fifth Annual Cozumel Scuba Festival takes place 20-25 June. Leading figures from the diving world including oceanographers, explorers, photographers and conservationists will gather in Cozumel for this celebration including special dive trips, lectures and presentations, a dive show and other events.

Daily morning dives and one night dive will explore the late Jacques Cousteau's favourite dive sites of the island, and those of his son John-Michel Cousteau, who has designed routes especially for the ScubaFest covering nine different reef sites.

For decades, members of the Cousteau family have been avid devotees of the Island’s magnificent dive sites, which form part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System, the second-largest coral reef system in the world.

The keynote presentation will be from Dr Sylvia Earle and is entitled 'Protection of the Oceans and Diving in Mexico'.

... Talks and seminars will take place at the Cozumel Convention Center where there will also be a ScubaFest EXPO covering the latest dive products, medical advancements, underwater photography equipment and scuba travel.
