Maybe he doesn't know any of the Mexican playas. Why don't you tell
him the ones you know and which one you recommend?

Playa del Roquetta in Acapulco is a nice shore dive, during a cruise
luncheon break, after you watch beer-drinking 4-legged goats, and
the fire-dancing natives.

There is a dive shop at the premise from which you can rent a tank,
tied to canvas shoulder straps and dive without any BC, air- or
depth-gauge.

There's the Playa Corona on the West side of Cozumel that's very
good for diving from the shore and/or drinking Corona.

Playa Bonita on the East side of Cozumel (at Punta Chiqueros) is
a no fish no coral dive, but if the tides are right, you may get
a free ride to Cuba.

There are lots of named Playa in Cozumel alone. Playa Bosh on the
South East near El Islote; Playa San Juan at the North West just
south of the San Juan Reef; and many more.

As the capitan says, there are lotsa playas in Mexico. ;) But
I wouldn't recommend most of them, except perhaps Playa Corona.
That's where most of the glass-bottom boats go to watch fish.
A good day or night dive to enter from near the cenote entrance
where the glass-bottom boats tend to go.

I can see it now... standing at a bus stop trying to find a scheduled
bus to Playa. Go ahead, Chilly, see if it works for you.

I didn't mean to post the follow-up THREE times.

GOOGLE screwed up. Each time I pressed the button to post, google
went into the tank for 10-20 secs and says "internal error, try
again after 30 seconds." So, I tried again in 30 seconds.

It did that AGAIN, and so I tried the 3rd time. And Google posted
the same post THREE TIMES.

So solly.
