PurpleFish42 Posted November 7, 2011 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I was interested in doing either the mini sub or snuba excursion in Cozumel. However, it seems as though there aren't many fish to see while you're underwater with either trip. Has anyone done either of these tours recently that can give me an idea what they were like? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoppingfever Posted November 26, 2011 #2 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Bumping hoping to find an answer also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whumcruise Posted December 5, 2011 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Originally we wanted to do the SNUBA tour but were told that it is only available through the cruise lines (which we obviously did not do due to the high prices). We then chose the mini sub tour (got it for $60 as we booked another excursion with them in costa maya) and we had a blast! I would definitely recommend this tour, my wife has never snorkeled before and enjoyed it a lot, which made my vacation a lot easier lol! Really fun tour!

Rare Lionesss Posted December 24, 2011 #7 Share Posted December 24, 2011 We did Snuba. It was a nice experience for me since I only snorkled before this. For my husband he was quite bored because he scuba dives. As snuba implies, you are teather via your air hose to your mask to a boat. and you complete a pre determined course. Always in close proximity to the tour guides. I felt purely safe. Now mind you, I opted to not wear to heavy of a weight belt. Bad decision. The guides had to help me down to the bottom to see the fishes better. Then I floated up, due to lack of weight. I was okay with this. My daughter and husband just took off, weighted down with no issues. The water was rough getting out. The sea floor at the beach was very rocky and I had difficulty getting out with flippers on even walking backwards, so I took them off and it was ouch ouch because of all the rocks. Something I did once, probably wont do again. Safe travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cce33e Posted December 29, 2011 #8 Share Posted December 29, 2011 The underwater scooter looks like serious fun! Did you see this tour at any other port in the W-Caribbean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divemedic Posted December 31, 2011 #9 Share Posted December 31, 2011 mini subs are better. Lots of dead bottom with the snuba as everbody walks around on the same area trip after trip. Doesn't attract as much fish. Divemedic:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malon55 Posted January 3, 2012 #10 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Definitely the scooter! I heard the SNUBA cannot be booked if you are on Carnival :mad: ...so it's an easy choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, what do you mean you got it for $60 as you booked it with another excursion? How do you do that? Where did you book it from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
