(Surfrider Foundation) - Located near Mexico's famous diving
spot, Manchones Reef, you'll find a collection of over 400 underwater statues
that comprise one of the world's most unusual museums, the Cancun Underwater
Museum. Despite being an artistic project, the park has conservation at is
core. In addition to being a tourist attraction, the statues double as a
conservation effort by drawing divers and snorkelers away from the Mesoamerican
Reef, the second-largest barrier reef system in the world. The sculptures end
up as homes for corals, sponges and other marine life.
