Modern underwater sculpture museum experienced via glass-bottom boat, snorkeling or scuba diving.via Google

A distinctive underwater art project that is one of the few cultural experiences here tied directly to the sea. It is worth doing if you are already planning a boat or snorkeling day.

Good to know
Best by boat or snorkel tour; weather and sea conditions matter

Such an amazing and surreal experience. This underwater museum feels ethereal and leaves you craving for larger oxygen tanks or a return visit. This was my first diving experience and I think it has spoiled me for any future dives. Crystal clear and warm waters with over 25 feet of visibility. Was able to see a variety of sea life. Will definitely return. I would come back to Mexico just to dive here again.

This is my second time there. I would certainly recommend it for anyone who is even a beginner. The depth is not too bad and the clarity is good. Lots of interesting things to see.

Beautiful dive spot for all levels of divers. High visibility, really cool under water sculptures, color fish and ocean life.

MUSA outsources this activity to Diving cancun agency. Very different art installations. SCUBA diving is a must if u wish to enjoy art installations. Diving Team was very professional. Do at young age. Very unique ideal but do not go to see Marine life. There are no corals or noticeable marine life in vicinity except on the statues. Go here if u have 6-8 hours time.

My review is a bit late but it’s worth documenting. My husband and I spent our honeymoon/anniversary in Mexico and decided to try scuba diving! My dream has always been to see wild life in their natural habitat, specifically sharks. Our dive instructor thought I was crazy but loved how excited we were and our passion for the ocean. Our diver went out of their way to make my dream come true. Sea turtles, sting rays, an octopus, various fish, and a nurse shark. Core memory made! The fact that he went out of his way to make our dreams come true (and kept us safe!) was worth a five star review.
