Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

In the ocean surrounding Cancun, Isla Mujeres, and Punta Nizuc, a massive art installation lies beneath the waves as the Cancun Underwater Museum. There are more than 500 life-sized sculptures underwater, and since its installation in 2009 the sculptures have started to become one with the ocean, with new coral life colonizing their surface and forming beautiful natural structures that blend with the manmade sculptures.

Visitors of all ages can take a ride on a glass bottomed boat to see these sculptures from the comfort of a dry environment. Those who want to see the sculptures from a more up-close and personal standpoint can scuba dive into the water to swim among the figures.
