UNDERWATER MUSEUM
4.1.
The National Marine Park in Cancun, Mexico, is visited each year by over 750,000 divers. They come to see the world’s most amazing coral reef. Unfortunately, they also cause a lot of damage. In 2009, the park’s authorities decided to create an underwater sculpture museum as an alternative destination for divers, and in this way, protect the endangered coral reef and the sea creatures which depend on it.

The nearly 500 life-size human figures displayed in the Cancun Underwater Museum were modelled on members of the local community and presented in various poses. There is, for example, a little girl with a smile on her face looking up to the surface, six business people with their heads buried in the sand, paying no attention to their surroundings, and a tired-looking man behind a desk with a dog sitting next to him.

The crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea make it easy to admire the sculptures. Visitors who are water sports enthusiasts usually choose snorkelling or scuba diving to explore this museum wonderland. For tourists who want to avoid getting wet on their trip to the museum, there are guided tours in a boat with a bottom made of glass. You can also book a day trip that combines the glass-bottom boat tour with a guided snorkelling tour with all necessary equipment included.

Most boats offering scuba diving tours of the museum leave in the early morning so you need to plan your transport to the port carefully. Any resort hotel should be able to arrange this for you. A diving licence is not necessary; however, having one is certainly a plus. Visitors without a diving licence have to take a short training course on the proper use of diving equipment and can only dive if accompanied by an instructor. While diving, you should avoid
touching the sculptures or disturbing the marine life in any way. Also, wearing eco-friendly sunscreen is a must.
