Lots of biodiversity and great guides!
Excellent warmth and good times, with them and I do my 3 certifications and will continue with the others. All the diving areas in Puerto Morelos being a protected national park are incredibly full of intact and varied biodiversity, do not forget to spend with them if you arrive in Puerto Mórelos.

Best diving company and instructors!!
Thank you for a magical diving experience!! This was my second time diving with Scuba Public and this time was for my advanced open water certification. Rene was an incredible instructor and I felt so safe and confident in every dive under his careful instruction. Whether you’re looking for diving certifications or fun recreational dives, I highly recommend Scuba Public. They are THE BEST!!

Professional instructor, awesome spots and great hospitality
I did the ssi sidemount certification and was very happy to receive a professional course which included many detailed tips and tricks, which improved my diving skills a lot. After that we went to the cenotes. Even though my gf was not a diver, romiro invited her to join us to the trips. Overall: great dives, nice spots and great hospitality!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cancun.
How much does Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos cost?
+
Prices start at $10900 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cancun usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cancun is not rushed.
Is Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cancun, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 72-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cancun can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cancun and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Diving Certification in Puerto Morelos start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cancun within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cancun?
+
On Outty we rank every Cancun experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Early Access to Chichen Itza All Inclusive with Valladolid and Cenote Swim, Whale Shark Tour from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Tulum and Riviera Maya, Small-Group 3 Hidden Cenotes Adventure with Tequila Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cancun?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cancun?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
