Palancar Gardens

Palancar Gardens is the gentlest chapter of Cozumel's most famous reef, a run of coral towers that rise ten meters and more off a bright sand floor. The current sets the pace while you weave between buttresses stacked with star coral, rope sponges, and fans, ducking through the occasional cut where angelfish hold territory. Turtles graze the tops, nurse sharks wedge under ledges, and the sand channels give new drift divers room to sort themselves out. It photographs like a postcard on any sunny day.

Tam da bunun için geldiğiniz an: Ten-meter coral towers, easy warm-up drift, turtles and angelfish, sunlit sand channels.

Topografya: Coral buttresses and pinnacles separated by white-sand channels, dropping toward the outer slope.

Akıntı: Usually a gentle one-way glide; can pick up without notice.

Giriş: Live-drop drift; the boat follows your bubbles and collects the group downcurrent.

Tehlikeler: Boat traffic at the surface and occasional current acceleration; carry a surface marker.

Koruma: Inside the Arrecifes de Cozumel marine park; no gloves, no touching, park bracelet required.

Nitrox: Burada değer: profiller, nitrox'un no-stop süresini anlamlı ölçüde uzattığı (ve bunu kullanacak eğitimle birlikte) aralıkta yer alıyor.
