Shangri-La

Improve

Shangri-La is another dive spot in Playa del Carmen that perfectly caters to novice divers, as it is very flat, has a depth between 6 meters and 10 meters and it has extremely little current.

Shangri-La has a small reef edge which turns into a gorgeous and lush coral garden that shelters a diversified selection of marine life. Among the species which can be found here are sea fans, gorgonians and coral bommies, soft and hard corals, which house crustaceans like lobsters and crabs, butterflyfish, snappers, grunts, groupers, sometimes parrotfish.

The shallow depth of Shangri-La makes it the ideal playground for underwater photography, and a pleasant water temperature between 24 and 27 degrees Centigrades makes for a great overall dive.
