COVID-19 DIVING PROCEDURES
As usual, Elite Divers International's main focus is always our divers safety, peace of mind and satisfaction for a relaxing and memorable tailored experience. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has determined Quintana Roo state as low risk at the moment. Most of the population is now fully vaccinated including all our staff.
Many of our initial procedures and policies have been discarded and a more relaxed atmosphere has begun.
Based on recommendations from the Divers Alert Network, as well as the Mexican Ministry of Health, we have summarized important protocols that are being implemented.
