Upon completion, there will be 12 different subaquatic art galleries consisting of 1,364 artificial habitats. Jason deCaires Taylor creates these statues from a non-toxic, pH neutral marine grade cement. Taylor's innovation in marine sculptures has created a dive site to Isla Mujeres which as of 2022 includes over 400 statues that have been spread out to protect the Manchones Reef System. This installation will be growing to over 1,000 as talked about above. These statues not only promote rapid coral growth but also provide habitats to many different species of marine life.

At only 8 to 9 meters in depth, it is an excellent site for all levels of divers. It is also an interactive dive.
