Overview

Walk the ocean floor in Cozumel without needing to swim or wear heavy scuba gear—simply slip on a lightweight, astronaut-style Sea Trek helmet that pumps fresh air from the surface, letting you breathe normally while strolling across the sandy seabed at depths up to 10–12 feet.

Your certified guide stays close, holding your hand for balance as you explore the underwater world of colorful fish, sea fans, and occasional rays or turtles in the calm, clear waters near Jeanie’s Beach Club. No swimming skills required—the helmet keeps your head dry and lets you communicate easily.

This 1-hour 35-minute adventure includes full gear fitting, a safety briefing, a short underwater walk, and free use of lockers/showers afterward.

Real talk: the helmet feels secure but the water stays cool—bring a towel and swimsuit if you want to splash around after.

Small groups max 8 for personalized attention; book early for calm days.
