Biography

I’m Miranda Ríos from Veracruz, now happily rooted in Cozumel. I fell for the ocean at sixteen, when coral restoration showed me how much our reefs need care. My first job as a snorkel photographer was eye‑opening I saw practices that hurt the reef and knew I wanted to do better.

That’s why I started Miri Adventures: small groups, respectful habits, and sharing the underwater magic with kindness and curiosity. I keep learning every year, most recently became Cave Diver and Tec Diver to guide safer, richer dives. We run 6+ tours and a cozy hostel, and we also create ocean projects with local kids and teens.

Most common questions

Winter 25-27°C (77–80°F). Spring 25.6- 28°C (78–82°F). Summer peaks 27-30°C (82–86°F). Fall 26.7-27.8°C (80–82°F). Most divers are comfy in a 3 mm suit, however we have both shorties and long sleeves wet suits to make you feel super comfortable.

No for try-dives. Discover Scuba includes a briefing and skills before a shallow reef dive. Certification is required for boat dives below 12 meters, beyond training depth or for advanced sites.

Take the 30–40 minute ferry to Cozumel, then a short taxi or 15min walk to our dive hostal Casa samay
