Best Diving in the World. Cozumel , Mexico GoPro Hero3.

- My last day of diving on the Cozumel reefs on our month long visit. Nov 12 to Dec 12 , 2012. The first reef is called Caracolillo and the second is Cedral. I was diving with one of my favourite dive company's " Dive with Martin"www.divewithmartin.com/ After over 250 dives with this company I can not recommend them more highly. Everyone from the dive masters, Captains, equipment managers and front desk staff are like family to me.
Thank you Orlando for making this dive one of the best of the trip. Also I had a chance to meet once again one of my favourite dive buddies and her husband. I also meet some new dive buddies.
I filmed this with the GoPro Hero2 in 1080p 30fps 16:9 wide aspect ratio. I used the flat lens housing from GoPro. Also at times used 2x Sola 2000's and a Backscatter magic flip filter www.backscatter.com/sku/bs-gp-... with the Snake River Prototyping tray and lockline arms. snakeriverprototyping.com/
I could have done a bit more editing but i think this video would be great while having a coffee and checking you email in the morning. Or even better on your 50" HD flat panel TV.

** adding this product to what I like to use as extension pole for GoPro www.gopole.com/product/gopole-... and edit the title from "Word" to " World", lol. Dec/18/2013.

Cheers Mike... i've witness this beauty first hand and i am always amazed at how peaceful the experience can make you feel.
To anyone considering a dive, just do it. I logged about 5,000 hrs. over 17 yrs. diving from West Palm Beach to Key West, and it never got boring. When you dive open water like this you never know what you may see. And you'll never run out of stories to tell your friends!
My first and only time diving (single tank) was in Cozumel. The experience was like heaven under water. Great video! Thank you.
It is like heaven, thank you for your comment!
I went to Cozumel on a cruise last year. Amazing and beautiful.
Oh wow that Looks Amazing!! Going there this summer!!
awesome. i've visited Cozumel twice, the first time in '89, and it's by far my favorite place to dive. this brings back lots of good memories. i'm hoping to go back one day soon with my son.
this place is defintely on my bucket list!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for posting this! Very pretty. The water in Cozumel is truly amazing.
I dove with Martin many times in Cozumel around 15 years ago and never had a bad dive with him. Glad to hear that they are still going strong. I purchased the dive housing for the Hero2 and tried using it in Barbados last week. To my dismay, the latch popped open one minute into my time in the water and the camera no longer works since salt water got into it. I am now debating on the Hero3+ Black or waiting a few months til the Hero4 is released.
Great video and I cannot wait to dive with my replacement camera after watching this video.
Thanks so much. GoPro is pretty good about giving a discount coupon on your next GoPro if you flood yours. I would email them and see if they can help.
Just learning to dive at the ripe old age of 51 (wish i'd done it years ago) and cozumel is definitely on my to do list probably in 2018. Got trips to greece and cuba first and hoping to get enough experience to do my advanced in mexico. Absolutely stunning film. Thanks
Beautiful work Mike. I enjoyed every moment of your adventure.
Cozumel is wonderful! I miss it very much!
Simply amazing. for real.
Beautiful and nice video!
really like the background music and awesome video
Love your Video!! How I love the ocean such a beautiful place!! Cant wait till we go back to Cozumel JUNE 16 2014 !!
Dang I will just miss you I am leaving at the start of June.
That's beautiful. This is #1 of the things i want to do and can't wait for next year, God willing. Thanks for sharing your experience.
You are welcome, maybe I will run into you next year. Make sure to book with Dive With Martin and ask for Mike. I might just be around. Remember everyone if you can breath then you can scuba dive. It takes no great skill and you don't need to be a athlete to do it. Even if you have never done scuba you can take a special introductory dive in shallow water with lots of wildlife to see. Then if you want you can get your certification right away :)
great video indeed... and it match perfectly with the music... looking at your video just make me wanna go dive there..
Thanks for sharing this is so beautiful
excellent video! you've moved mexico to the top of my dive list
Love that island... Great music along with the footage!!
THANK YOU for the AWESOMELY BEAUTIFUL footage. The music and video are OUTSTANDING! SO GREATLY ENJOYED every second of it. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHARING.
You're very welcome, I often have my coffee to this video and enjoy the music as well!
The first song made me think of Ocean's 13 immediately!!
Deep dive, deep colors and deep adventures. Very nice video.
Thank you ebazyli :)
This is a beautiful part of the world and your video is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome !! Thank you for the comment!
Great Video Mike! excelent memories from diving down there, thanks
Thanks my friend!!
Wow it's a beautiful place
so much life! soo peaceful! I love my Mexico.
You have a amazing beautiful country !
My first dive was with Martin too. They were awesome!
Thanks Mike... enjoyed your video. The best places that I have found are Ningaloo Reef off Exmouth West Australia and Vanuatu. They have everything from Whale sharks to dugongs and colourful reefs seaming with fish. I enjoyed my underway experiences in Mexico and Belize.
Oh boy, Then that is on the bucket list for sure!!!! Thanks for the comment :)
Most beautiful video in the world 😍👍🏽 amazing footage!!!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful!
Really enjoyed the footage swimming along side the turtle. Well done.
Cancun always allow a nice dive. The warm and crystalline water is amazing.
I got to the Cancun area in the summer to snorkle with whale sharks and manta rays!!
Looks so beautiful !! It’s on the list
Yes it is, I hope you come one day!
Mike Gerrie I will soon !!
Really Amazing work
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Cozumel is so awesome!! Yes it's drift diving but not normally in a fast currant. Palancar deep has a short through cave that's cool. Lots of eels and lobster that will make you look for butter!! But!! Also barracuda!!! There is a awesome dive shop in the barracuda hotel. Very affordable. The best dive masters!!! I MISS MEXICO,!!
Wow. Can't wait to see this in person. We have a carribean cruise booked and I'm signed up on a two tank scuba exclusion. Our first cruise took us to Cozumel and hands down this location has the most to see when you snorkel. I'm slowly getting the fam to try scuba diving. I actually got them booked on a casta maya discover scuba while we are down there. Just couldn't sacrifice roatan or Cozumel two tanks. :) I'd love to get them certified for a week long Cozumel trip. Baby steps though since one is paranoid after a snuba exclusion regulator that breathed hard for them.
Looking to get back to Cozumel soon. It’s world class. Nice video
Thanks hope you enjoy your stay!
About to go on my first dive trip in Cozumel and loving ur video! Music is great by the way!
Thank you Mimi :)
Wow what a great video!!!
great video.. peaceful stuff. thank you
You're welcome :)
Awesome video!
Hey, Congratulations, awesome work.
Like your video, you went to one of the fanciest beach, Quintana Roo, México. You'e a thorough camera diver.
COZUMEL...!!! AMAZING...!!!
you all probably dont care but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb lost the password. I love any assistance you can offer me
@Quincy Kristian Instablaster :)
Amazing! I have to do this before I die.
Yes you do!
I was in cozumel diving is the best experience in my life the water is so clear and transparent incredible.
I know right!! It is amazing!
It's amazing!
Thank you, it is such a wonderful place.
Very nice...I just got back from Cozumel. I need to get one of those video cams for my dives. Thanks for uploading your video.
Thanks for the comment Richard :)
We film soulful city walk through's with a gopro, so it's good to see someone filming underwater with it successfully, as we haven't tried this this yet. Thank you I've subscribed and look forward to more.
Thats great I will check out your channel!
excelente video ! Me encantaría bucear allí. He nadado en Cancún y vimos muchos peces y algunas barracudas .
I live right across cozumel, Playa Del Carmen. The beaches there are very nice there to.
Excellent video... thank you so much for sharing :-)
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
I love this video 💖👍👍👍
Thank you!
Amazing!
Going to be diving here in March. I'm so excited!!!
Hayley Marie Smith Just missed you I arrived in April, hope you enjoyed yourself!
Mike Gerrie It was beautiful! Great drift diving.
Dude the shallow water feels like heaven and I'm going there this summer too no joke
Maybe we will see you there!
Фантастика!
Just Amazing!!
Thank you very much!
Great Video, I hope to dive there some time.
Would be great to have you :)
beautiful. i myself have advanced open water certification. only done a couple of dives in the canarie islands though. this look totaly beautiful.
Dark Silver I would love to dive the Canary Islands someday :)
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks for the comment altitude9.
Very nice video. Beautiful colors. I guess because you use lights. Correct? What lights do you use? How do you ensure they point same way as camera? Is camera mounted on your head?
amazing man, i love diving but I live so far away from the ocean hehe
I am going scuba diving there next week from the carnival cruise! I am super excited but slightly nervous because I've never gone scuba diving in the ocean only springs!
You'll love it, open water diving in the Gulf of Mexico is the best.
brittney r I missed the message. Did you go diving. The Dive with Martin scuba shop is right at the Carnival Docks :)
Great Video!
Hey mike! You met my dad Kirk on the dive with Martin boat! Really impressive work on here, your videos are what made me get a go pro.
LexiLouxoxo Haha, yeah I remember your Dad, great guy. Thanks for the Compliment and enjoy the GoPro!
Great video, well edited and perfect music. Go to the Red Sea, you won't regret it. Thanks for sharing it!
Thank you Mauro, I can not wait to try the Red Sea, I have heard so many amazing things about it!
The most beautiful garden I have ever seen !!!
I dived the same year at the same place, best place ever
Agreed !
very nice clip
Thank you for the video, I hope to get certified in diving so I can do these things too!
I hope you did it!!!
december 11th 2012, the day before the world was supposed to end. good thing you did what you loved the that day
Amazing video and even more amazing place :)) so excited to go here next year! Do you have any suggestions of where to stay, best beaches, and best things to do there? Thanks!
amazing
Kimberly, the camera tray I use is from Snake River Prototyping and can double as a tripod on sandy bottom if the current is not strong. I do on occasion use a post production stabilization on certain shots to reduce shake but once i am back in the water for a day or two and I sort my buoyancy out. My videos come out with a lot less shake. There is definitely a learning curve though , you should see some of my earlier stuff lol.
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.
Oh boy would love to dive St. Maarten one day!!!
Been over 10 years since we dove Cozumel, my daughter was 3, she is 13 and just got her certification. We are going soon!
oh wow, I'm so jealous when I see just how young some are when they first get certified. Some many years of experience ahead of them!!!
Hello Mr Mike Gerrie, your is video so fantastic.
Thanks so much!!!
Nice video !
Great video, especially the first sequence of following the tortoise. (6:34) Looks like quite the variety of life down there. Can't wait to use the same camera for something like that.
tortoises live on land. Turtles live in fresh water but sunbathe on rocks or logs regularly. Sea turtles live their entire lives in the Ocean with the exception of crossing the beach after hatching or beaching to lay eggs.
great video thanks for sharing
Awesome video I’m in love haha
I know right!!!
Im 11 and i have been to cozumel/playa 13 times!
Cool video!
Thanks man!
I've only been to Cozumel for one day, but I would,d love to stay their about two weeks. Roatan is the also a wonderful place to snorkel at Little French Kay.
Thank you, my first love was snorkeling and I just recently got my freedive certification. Would love to snorkel Roatan. maybe this year!
Mike, Nice job post processing all your footage and adding the music. I dive the Playa del carmen / Cozumel area a few times a year and never get tired of it. It is a beautiful, accessible and affordable place to dive. A few questions for us wanna be underwater photographers. Can you tell us what type of lights you used? How many? Is the footage we are seeing actual speed, or did you slow it down a bit for more impact? Keep up the good work and dive safe.
Yes a great dive, however GBR Australia has the most awesome reef and wild life I've ever seen. I've dove the world for the most part. If you have not been that would be your best dives ever. Dive with Tusa T6
Thank you, I would love to dive the Great Barrier Reef someday and thanks for the shout out to Tusa T6 i will check them out!
Love the turtles -! Great shots :)
Thank you tampamichelle. Possible I dove with you in Playa Del Carmen?
which red filter did you find better to use? also when did you know when to take it on and off?
this is amazing footage i actually just bought the go pro black edition i was wondering if you could steer me into some key accessorizes that are needed as well as a external mic that could handle concerts and stuff thanks alot man
Thank you all who have left a comment. You are helping me get more and more views by leaving your comments :).
Mike Gerrie ok
Nice video! The last time I was in Cozumel the reefs' looked pretty beat down. Check out the Bahammas on a Black Beard's cruise.
The reefs are almost completely back to their previous splendor from the Hurricane in 2005. I would love to do a Black Beard Cruise! Going to Bahamas in January to dive with the tigers and lemons of Tiger Beach!
Your camera is really sharp! Feels like I'm watching NatGeo
best place to dive!!!
Sure is!
Hey Mike! I am going to Cozumel to dive in Jan. I was considering the Gopro hero black 3 with the back-scatter filter system. How much of this video has the lights running? I am wondering what depth you are at most of the time, but not sure if I can spend the extra coin on the lights. Nice vids by the way.
At what distance do the 2000s have no effect on lighting? Great video. I dive Cozumel every year and can't wait to get back in the water. Thanks!
were u using any filters when taking this video
