We had the best day! He was so patient and answered all my questions and soothed my nerves with him instructions. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in trying scuba diving. I felt safe at every step.

We had a great 1st dive with Sonia and SunRiders. The boat and equipment was in good condition and safe. my son’s fist dive and Sonia went over everything that was needed. Saw tons of fish including puffers, angels, triggers. Would recommend this shop again.
DM made sure I was comfortable and when we actually took the plunge, it was an amazing and very memorable experience.
This was such an amazing experience for the first time diving! Angelo is incredible! He was so calm and wanted to make my first time as enjoyable as possible. I want to get certified and dive again, all because of the experience and expertise from Angelo!
We went Nov 8 2025 in the morning. THIS IS ACTUALLY FOR BEGINNERS. We had NEVER been scuba diving before. Angelo is an amazing instructor who focuses on safety. Although we both knew how to swim, it was not necessary. It is however necessary to remember to focus on breathing out of your mouth and NOT your nose. Angelo makes sure to take you through the proper steps to clear your mask, hand signals to communicate while under water, inflating/deflating your vest etc. We were fortunate to be the only 2 for our experience and it was wonderful. We got awesome pics and videos with tons of marine life. Puffer fish were swimming around us like little pets- they didn’t even puff and wanted to be petted (lol). The views were amazing on the trip out to the diving site and we got to see sea lions on the dock as well as the colony on the rocks. Alvaro was a great captain of our ship! We saw other companies that were diving with 10-15+ divers in the group and were grateful we were NOT a part of that! Angelo did a wonderful job keeping us calm We were actually in the water when the other groups had just gotten out which was another bonus. We are now looking to learn more about scuba diving and excited for our next opportunity to be under the sea🤿🐠 If I could give them a 10 star rating I would. THIS IS YOUR BEST CHOICE AND WE WOULD DEFINITELY CHOOSE THEM TO GO AGAIN!!!!!! Angelo also gave us some great recommendations for the local markets and restaurants! ***Also for transportation TAKE AN UBER! We took a taxi there and an uber back - the uber was 3x cheaper, but this also changes throughout the day*** Thank you to Angelo and Alvaro for a wonderful experience❣️ 🫶🏽🫶🏻 Dee & Kristin
I was able to dive with my girlfriend who dives with sunrider every month. I was very impressed with Angelo thoroughly enjoyed my time. I would definitely dive with sunrider when I get certified. I can’t wait till I get certified. It was a beautiful dive and I’ve never seen so many fish, and Angelo was so attentive
Angelo was a great guide for discover scuba. We had a great time and saw some beautiful reefs and fish….even a white tipped shark.
We meet Angel at their shop on the Marina. He was welcoming and very professional. He walked us through everything. We were suppose to have two others join and to our luck we found ourselves on a private tour. Skippo our captain drove us out to the lookout point, allowed us to get photos and brought us to the snorkeling sight. Once there Angel stayed observant , helped guide me and also took underwater photos. I always felt very safe and enjoyed the full experience. I only wish we could have had longer snorkeling time but that is determined by your air tank. Thanks to the team for such a beautiful experience.
An amazing Beginner SCUBA experience. Our dive leader Sofia was friendly, confident, and very knowledgeable! The dive group was also broken up into smaller groups for an experience that felt almost private!
Instructor Angelo and captain Jimmy was extremely helpful for a first time diver! Angelo was super friendly and took his time for me to get used to the water and the breathing and to relax. Very professional and safety always comes first. I’ll tell you one thing it’s not as easy as it looks but hey the experience is totally worth it, and it’s something you must experience. It’s a whole new world under water. I couldn’t thank these guys enough for not only being patient with me but also helping me learn the beginner steps as a diver I HIGHLY recommend you guys do it and ofcourse make sure to get Angelo you will be pleased with the service! Angelo & Jimmy thank you!!!
