Cozumel – Intercontinental El Presidente

December 5 – December 9 CST

One of my favorite spots to dream about is Cozumel.  Because of its relative location to Houston, it seems more like a local dive spot than a foreign destination.  In two hours, I can be there and in four hours I can be checked it, changed into dive equipment and be jumping in the crystal blue water just off the beach at the El Presidenté Intercontinental.  Or better yet, I can be racing off in a boat with our friends at Scuba Du to do a dive further down the reefs.

Diving in Cozumel is a real treat.  No matter what you are looking for, they have it.   The reefs offer a wide variety of marine life and formations.  There are vertical walls at Palacar and coral bommies in twenty-feet of water nearby at Columbia.   There are gently sloping walls at Chankanauub and fast moving fun at Passo Cedral.  For snorkelers there are sites up and down the coast with beautiful fish and healthy corals just out reach but easy enough to swim over.  For the hard core diver, you can do four dives a day plus a night dive right off the beach or off a boat with your own guide.

What People Say…

Kelley Jones Minor

Appreciate the personal service and care at Oceanic Ventures

Ann really took her time helping to fit my niece with her first mask and fins. We so appreciated the personal attention, and we loved that she was open to talking about dive certification, but she wasn't giving us the hard sell. We live out toward Tomball but would happily drive back here vs. going to a nearby competitor simply for the service.

Jean Jansen

Pam Radford

I learned a lot from Oceanic Ventures

I really enjoyed my Technical Diver Course and I learned a lot.

Pam Radford

Oceanic Ventures is the best dive shop

Best Dive Shop I've ever used. I've been diving since 1984 and you will not find more talented staff anywhere else. They are small, family owned and service oriented #1. You get personal service from start to finish from people who actually dive all over the world. I've taken simple to advance courses from them and the trainers are excellent. Dive trips are well organized to unique locations and always fun. This type of depth of knowledge is very difficult to find, especially in Texas.

Oceanic Ventures is a great dive shop

Great dive shop with wonderful instructors to share your passion for the underwater world. They have fun for the whole family from kids diving programs through advanced diving. Checkout their scuba diving vacation to some of the best diving in the world. I really like the Diva dive vacation to Grand Cayman.

Charles Franklin

Oceanic Ventures is the best

I have been to many scuba stores in Houston and this one is by far the best. Most scuba stores have a couple of salespersons who will show you one of the 40 types of fins and 10 types of regulators that they have in stock and immediately try to sell these to you. Most of these same stores really cater only to people just getting certified. Oceanic ventures has a very different business model. While they do have an inventory, it is not as large as other stores. The difference is that they really try to foster a dive community. It works. People come back again and again. Further, unlike many stores, they teach just about everything possible. If you want to teach your child how to snorkel, they teach that. If you want to learn how to dive 350 feet down on a rebreather using helium gas mixes and several additional scuba tanks, they teach that. They teach everything in between. Not many stores do that. Additionally, the staff is very knowledgeable about all the equipment they sell. You will never get an "I don't know about that" type of answer.
