Yucab

Yucab is a reef site along the southwest coast of Cozumel, part of the string of drift dive sites that run parallel to the island's shore in the Yucatan Channel. Like nearby reefs along this stretch, it sits within a marine park protecting the coral formations that line the drop-off between the shore and open water. Depths in this part of Cozumel's leeward reef system generally range from shallow coral tops down to sloping walls further out. The reef is typically dived as a drift dive, with boats dropping divers to move with the current along the coastline.
