Scuba diving with Punta Sur Divers Cozumel at Palancar Gardens

Scuba diving with Punta Sur Divers Cozumel at Palancar Gardens felt deeply full-circle. I first dove here years ago when I worked onboard ships—now I’m back on Norwegian Escape, celebrating my birthday, my book BRAVE-ish, and getting back in the water with an extraordinary group of women. 🌊🤿🦋 This was an all-women dive—seven women, one team of the sea—guided by Jorge and led by owner Cris, a small, family-owned operation that takes real pride in doing things the right way. The dive was beautifully captured through the lens of Catalina Velasco, National Geographic photographer and marine biologist, alongside my very first dive with a new GoPro—different perspectives, one shared experience. Cozumel is a protected island, a UNESCO-recognized marine reserve, and that commitment shows. The women diving here are not just guests of the sea—they are its defenders. Mujeres de Cozumel.
