If you do go to the Myan, do lots of research and find out exactly where you should go and be prepared to do it without tour groups. I think our biggest mistake was going in a reputable tour group, we went to a bay in Akumal which is apparently known for snorkeling but it had brackish water which really screwed up the visibility. My gf has been to Xel-Ha but says it's over rated with a good amount of fish but nothing much else to see.
The cenotes were definitely the coolest part of the trip. Not 100% sure but you may need special certification to dive them though.
