About this dive site

This dive site, Moc Che Deep, offers an exhilarating deep dive experience in the waters off Mexico, specifically near Playa del Carmen. Characterized by strong currents and numerous coral formations, it demands experienced diving skills. Divers can expect a long dive exploring the reef's varied topography. There is no specific history or story behind the site mentioned in the provided information.

The marine life here is exceptionally abundant, featuring a vibrant ecosystem. Divers frequently encounter large sponges, graceful rays, majestic turtles, and a diverse array of colourful reef fish. Schools of large fish are common, alongside moray eels and, seasonally, sharks.

While specific best times for highlights are not detailed, the presence of sharks suggests seasonal visits. A full neoprene wetsuit is highly recommended not for cold, but to prevent scratches from exploring the coral-rich bottom. This site is exclusively for certified divers, and due to the depth and strong currents, it is not suitable for snorkeling or freediving.
