Upgrade to a Deluxe Cabana! $250/person
Definitely an upgrade from the Superior Rooms, these two story mini-condos are designed in the local flare. Painted, thick, stucco walls, quaintly adorned with local art; cool, tiled floors; a kitchenette with cook top, refrigerator, sink, microwave, and coffee maker. There is a massive bed downstaris with a TV and private bathroom, as well as a futon/couch situation upstairs, again with a TV and full, private bathroom. If you're wondering whether the upgrade is worth it... IT IS! Spartan tested. Spartan approved! Deluxe Cabana can be double OR quad occupancy. Please check with your Spartan representative for more information.
The Basics
Come with us to Cozumel for an all inclusive experience at Casa Del Mar! Here breakfast, lunch, and dinner is included as well as all drinks including most all alcohol choices. With a sky bridge from the resort to their epic access to the water for unlimited shore diving the 5 days of boat diving seem like a cherry on top.
Cozumel is home to some of the best drift diving on the planet, with carefully managed coral reefs and stunning wall dives plummeting into the abyss, you will certainly see and experience something never before imagined in these waters.
Not interested in diving but would prefer to be shore support for your buddy, spouse, or kid? Not a problem. Our resort is located just north of the cruise ship terminals so there is plenty for the non-diver to explore if they wish to venture out of the all inclusivity of Casa Del Mar.

Schedule Details
Day One: Arrival
Arrive at Cozumel International Airport (code CZM). Get bags and navigate through customs. Your Spartan Dive Team rep will meet you out front and get you shuttled to our resort, where your other Spartan rep will help you get checked in, show you around, and get you registered at the dive shop.
Certified divers, you’re on your own for the afternoon: head into town for grocery items or just grab a tank and jump into your bubble therapy!
Spartans to be, this is where your adventure begins! We will quickly get into our superhero SCUBA gear and start our first certification skills and dive. The goal will be to get at least one dive, but two is even better!
Dinner. We will be dining in-house this evening. Food, drinks, and all the group bonding we can handle until we part ways for a good night’s sleep!
Day Two: SCUBA Life!
Breakfast starts daily at 0700. Join the line for the breakfast buffet and decide on either menu or daily special for lunch. Boats start arriving around 0830 for certified divers to shuffle aboard and get situated.
Spartans to be, you will have the entire morning to yourself! Lay in the sun, head into town, or relax on a lounge chair while reading a book (aka “napping”). The morning boat dives are usually back around noon for lunch, after which we’ll head back out and wrap up the remaining required 2-3 dives for your certification.
Evening plans are up to you. Glom onto one another or your Spartan Dive Team leaders or go it alone: the adventure is yours to choose!
Day Three: Everybody on the boat.
From today until Thursday night, we’ll all be together!
Morning boat 2-tank dive will probably be a bit shallower, no deeper than 60 fsw, to accommodate our first-time bubble heads. But, since that’s where the best stuff to see lives, all the better!
Back for lunch and then free time until the evening when anyone who wants to experience shore diving at night is welcome to join our Chief Spartan on an epic diving adventure. Don’t be surprised to see a spotted eagle ray zoom right past you, baby drum fish, lionfish, and lots of other little critters skuttling about the sea floor.
Day Four: Yes Please!
Morning boat dive for everybody! The afternoon will consist of a specially scheduled 1-tank boat dive to explore the inside of a wreck. Advanced divers only on this one. Other boat dives can be scheduled or joined.
Dinner: this evening we will be gathering at a great place just north of the resort for dinner and a nightcap at the Blue Angel. Hopefully they’ll have lionfish back on the menu!
Day Five: Best Groundhog Day EVER!
Let’s do yesterday again..
Day Six: May I have some more, please.
Morning boat dives; hopefully this time we’ll be diving some of the deeper walls.
Once we return, the afternoon is wide open. Schedule more boat dives, blow bubbles off the shore, or head into town for some time on two legs.
Day Seven: Divergence
For most of us, this is an off day. Remember that the rule is 24 hours between your flight and surfacing from your last dive. Your Spartan Dive Team will be heading out for a 2-tank morning technical dive which should put us back just before the end of lunch, and well within our pre-flight requirements, while our brand-new Spartans will be headed out for their fifth 2-tank boat dive of the week.
Divers should feel free to schedule boat dives or jump into the water with a tank out front of the resort as desired, just watch your times!
Dinner. Tonight, we can head into town for an amazing group good-bye meal at a beautiful Italian restaurant featuring a spectacular open courtyard and memory-making food, or hang at the resort for all the food and libations you can handle. The end result is the same. Tomorrow, we say goodbye. …for now.
Day Eight: The Long Goodbye
Get up, have coffee, and breakfast before heading back to your room to pack everything up. Get ready to check out by noon. Don’t forget to tip your boat crew and divemaster for the week!
At noon we’ll take some final photos, exchange contact information, and then convoy to the airport en masse.
F.A.Q.
What can I expect to see underwater?
“The bottom of Doc’s fins!”
AND… spotted eagle rays, nurse sharks, lionfish, giant grouper, drum fish, porcupine fish, and if you’re luck – seahorses. And MUCH, much more.
What is the water like?
Pretty similar to the Oregon coast with crystal clear waters at a balmy 80-84°.
Are meals included?
Yep! Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are part of your package at this all inclusive resort!
Can I bring my kids?
Tough question. The simple answer is yes, but why? Kids under 11 can stay in their parent’s room for free, and there are some rooms with a small, futon-like couch for little Jr. Third Wheel to camp out, but someone has to be there to watch the little tykes at all times.
Why should I go on this trip?
First off, you get to go to Cozumel, Mexico to an all-inclusive resort built around the diver experience. Rooms are air conditioned, beds are clean, and everyone gets their own private place to shower and poop (different tools for each!). What more could you ask for?
US! You get to hang out and dive with us!
