Never dived before? No problem. We'll have you exploring cenotes by lunchtime. We offer private discover scuba diving tours with complimentary pickup right from Viva Maya Wyndham.
Viva Maya by Wyndham is an all-inclusive beachfront resort in Playacar's Phase II, catering primarily to families and couples looking for a laid-back, affordable Caribbean holiday in the safety of Playa del Carmen's most established resort enclave. The property sits along a quiet stretch of beach just south of the Fifth Avenue tourist zone and offers access to the full range of Playacar amenities. The Playacar location is ideal for day trips, with the nearest cenotes 20 minutes north by car.
Couples and families who chose Viva Maya for its relaxed pace will find that Discover Scuba matches that energy with a calm, encouraging half-day introduction to diving. There is no pressure and no rush — instructors guide beginners through basic techniques before a gentle reef descent in the Caribbean. Children aged 10 and older can join, and the small-group format keeps things personal and unhurried. Transport from the resort and back is included, fitting the activity neatly into your low-key schedule.
Seth Dive picks you up at Viva Maya by Wyndham and drives approximately 20 minutes north to Crystalino, Chikin-Ha, and Chac Mool, or about 35–40 minutes south to Dos Ojos and The Pit near Tulum.
