Explore Punta Sur: Cozumel’s Most Thrilling Dive Adventure
For the true adventurers out there, Punta Sur is not just a dive site — it’s a legend. Known for its mysterious tunnels, deep walls, and epic marine life, Punta Sur is often called Cozumel’s wildest dive. At MillyUnderwater, we offer guided dives to this stunning and challenging site for those ready to experience the most advanced underwater terrain Cozumel has to offer.
What Is Punta Sur?
Located at the southern tip of the island inside the Cozumel Reefs National Marine Park, Punta Sur (meaning “South Point”) is a deep wall dive famous for its complex topography, Cavern-like swim-throughs, and dramatic drop-offs that sink into the abyss.
It’s home to one of Cozumel’s most iconic underwater features: "The Devil’s Throat" — a narrow tunnel that descends steeply from around 80 feet to over 130 feet (24–40 meters), opening into the blue like a portal to another world.
