Out of this word
This was the most fascinating experience we have ever had, Katalina was a perfect teacher. My girlfriend and I have never done scuba diving before, and to our instructor Katalina this was not even an issue . She led every step of the way and insured we had a fascinating experience. Words can not describe how amazing this was. I would strongly recommend this to anyone experienced or not. Katalina was very experienced and professional.

Great experience
The trip exceeded my expectations. The dive master customizes the trip to your experience level. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, you will have a great time. It was a great experience and I ended up booking a second trip with them. If you are new to scuba diving, certified or not, this is who you wanna go with.

Visit the best of Cozumel with this stunning scuba experience!!
This was an AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING and beautiful scuba excursion! Lara was an exceptional instructor! She gave clear instructions, complete follow-up, constant safety supervision, and lots of local knowledge with a fun attitude! I Highly recommend this introductory scuba excursion! We completed two separate dives at two different locations along the reef area. (excursion has 1 or 2 tank/dive options. Take the 2 dives option!). This was my first scuba experience *with the caveat of having done "Snuba" once before... so I was at least familiar with breathing underwater. That does otherwise take a moment to mentally get used to. :)
Lara was extremely communicative the entire time! I was unsure of the timing between the arrival of our cruise liner, availability of taxis, etc.. but she clarified everything for me ahead of time and even adjusted the meeting time to allow for potential arrival delays (not necessary in the end).
I arrived on the Margaritaville at Sea Islander cruise ship into Cozumel. Our port was the SSA/International pier. Getting off the ship was very quick - I was ready to go at the time the ship was ready for disembarkation. Taxis were very numerous and readily available. I chose to walk to our meeting location at the marina (only a 25 minute walk). This was 5 minutes longer than originally planned due to construction at the original meeting point. But Lara communicated this location change earlier. I chose to walk back to the ship after the excursion too, and had over an hour and a half to spare. No Pier Runner worries! Admittedly, there were not a prevalence of taxis at the marina BUT, when I reached the main roadway there were plenty of taxi options! Several were honking at me to offer a lift (remember, I was walking). Easier to taxi there and back, obviously.
The excursion itself was stunning! Words can't really explain the beauty of the undersea. We saw so many different things swimming by: Spotted Eagle Rays, moray eels, sea turtles, barracudas, sting rays, lobsters, coral and so many other colorful fish. Snorkeling, 4 wheeling, sunbathing, beaches and cenotes cannot compare to this adventure. Shopping and food tastings can be accomplished anywhere. But the Sea, she is a rare beauty and should be experienced whenever the opportunity arises.

First experience diving 100/10
My first time diving and it was amazing! Everything was super!, Lara explained very clearly and patiently, her Spanish is perfect lol
I loved making two tanks the first one was useful to learn and feel comfortable the second one was already a fish in the water.
The places they chose were also amazing we could see many shark fish and manta ray.
Without hesitation I recommend it and if I return to Cozumel I would return with Lara ;)

Gracias Cecilia - me alegra que hayas disfrutado tus primeras inmersiones en el mundo del buceo y espero que te certifiques YA porque eres una sirena natural! Nos vemos la próxima :)

Awesome snorkeling Experience
The guides were VERY informative and helpful teaching you all of the important safety precautions and techniques for being in the water. Once in the water we did a few drills before we went on an amazing underwater adventure. We saw a variety of sea life with lots of fish vegetation and vibrant colors. 10/10 would do again!

Wonderful experience!!
Our experience exceeded our expectations greatly. Gildas and Lara were outstanding to work with from first contact to the end of our last dive! Gildas was by far the best guide we have ever worked with. Incredibly patient he was totally committed to us having the best experience possible. Cannot recommend this company highly enough!! Great people.

Excellent staff and absolutely recommend!
Was an amazing trip! Lara and Meggy were super knowledgeable and able to make the experience the best of the trip. I was really anxious about diving at first, and they put me completely at ease. One person in our party loved it so much that he went back for the full certification course. 100% worth the money and will absolutely be back with them next time I am in the area!

Diving with Lara!
We had so much fun with Lara! She kept us calm even though we were all a bit nervous and now we're all big fans of diving. I'd recommend her to anyone that wanted to learn how to dive.

Amazing!
This was such an amazing experience! I’m new to scuba but I felt very safe and comfortable the entire time. Our guide Fernando did a great job making sure our group of divers with mixed experience all had fun, and the more experienced divers I was with said this was the best dive they had ever been on. We saw so much coral, thousands of bright fish, stingrays, sea turtles, sharks, and squid the day we went out. I highly recommend this company and this dive!
Operator response
Thank you ladies so much for the great review. We are so happy that all of you enjoyed the dives :) Come back and see us soon!
