Even if you have, this one would definitely blow your mind. &#8216;Museo Subacu\u00e1tico de Arte&#8217; Cancun is the biggest submerged museum in the world. More than 500 life-size underwater art installations await you in the National Marine Park near Cancun, Punta Nizuc and Isla Mujeres. The shallow depth of some of the galleries makes the museum great attraction for avid divers of all levels and snorkelers alike.<\/p>\n<h2>Explore 500+ Underwater Sculptures with an Ocean Conservation Mission<\/h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6890 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Scuba diving Musa Cancun\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cancun&#8217;s underwater museum of art was originally established in 2010 with the artworks of many artists under the direction of the British Sculptor: Jason deCaires Taylor. Special PH-neutral marine concrete was used in the creation of all statues. \u0422he goal of the art installation is to help restore the disrupted coral reefs and provide extra area for the ocean inhabitants to colonize and thus counteract the devastating climate change effects on marine life. Ocean conservation comes first.<\/p>\n<h2>Your Scuba Diving Experience in MUSA Cancun<\/h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7025 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"musa cancun museum diving experience\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.kooxdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/musa-cancun-museum-experience.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll set off to the sea for a fun boat ride leading to MUSA Underwater Museum.\u00a0 Beautiful coral reefs teeming with colorful fish and marine life await you in Manchones reef in a two-dive, two-location adventure.<\/p>\n<p>The Ko\u2019ox Diving team knows the Caribbean waters intimately, sea diving is one of the most exciting types of underwater excursions.
