Three days of winter wow
The Winter Woahs! package brings together three of the Riviera Maya’s most memorable dive environments at the time of year when bull sharks visit Playa del Carmen. Across three separate days you will drift over the reefs and walls of Cozumel Marine Park, observe bull sharks in their natural environment before a second dive on a shallow Playa reef, and explore the crystal-clear freshwater caverns of the cenotes — six guided dives with our multi-day savings already included.
This package is designed for experienced divers visiting during bull shark season, typically from mid-November to mid-February. It combines a seasonal wildlife encounter with two year-round highlights, giving you dramatic walls, thriving Caribbean reefs, open-water wildlife, and the geological world beneath the Mayan jungle in one coordinated plan.

Who is this package for?
This package is for Advanced Open Water divers or equivalent with recent dive experience who are visiting during the winter bull shark season and are comfortable with deeper profiles, current, and precise buoyancy control.
The bull shark observation area is approximately 27m / 90ft, and typical Cozumel wall profiles may also go beyond Open Water training limits. The cenotes require good buoyancy and horizontal trim to protect their delicate overhead environment. If you are Open Water certified and have suitable recent experience, SDI Deep Adventure training may be possible after a prior skills assessment — contact us before booking so we can review your experience and schedule.
A genuine wildlife encounter
Our bull shark trip is for observation only. We do not use bait or feed the sharks. Their movements, distance from the group, and time in the area are entirely their own, which means sightings and close approaches cannot be guaranteed.
The package includes the bull shark observation fee. If no bull sharks are seen, or they are only glimpsed briefly in the distance, we apply the same refund of that fee offered on the individual trip. Weather, port decisions, regulations, and shark activity may also affect the operating schedule, so flexibility is important.
Real people, real plans
When you book Winter Woahs! online, choose a preferred start date. After your deposit is confirmed, our team will plan your three dive days around your vacation and the bull shark operating schedule. Shark trips generally run on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons during the season, while Cozumel Direct and cenote trips normally depart in the morning.
If you have specific dates in mind, mention them in the notes at checkout or contact us before booking. We will account for your certification, recent experience, weather, sea conditions, and current shark activity when arranging the itinerary.
The three trips are listed in a suggested order, but the final sequence may change to make the best use of conditions and availability.
If your dates fall outside bull shark season, take a look at our Full Experience package for a year-round three-day combination of Playa reefs, Cozumel, and cenotes.
