Try Scuba Diving - No previous experience!

Salty Endeavors provided an amazing first time diving experience, dont look further they are by far the best operators (I did 2 other dives with different operators that I wont even bother to write a review). Since our booking until the end of the dive they were very helpful, our instructor Joss and the boat crew were very knowledgeable and friendly always showing us interesting marine life around.

I previously reviewed Hotel 101, with a negative aspect. While that room review stands, the staff manager Jason offered us a room change with a smart tv in it. We took it, gladly, but the wifi dropped out alot, the weather was terrible this trip, snd may have caused the outages. Greatly appreciated Jason’s above and beyond support! Thanks Hotel 101 staff! You are the best in opinion!

nd Salty Endeavors!! They are a great shop that pay close attention to detail to ensure a positive dive experience and your safety. They provide detailed briefings and happy to answer any questions. They are also happy to help you become a better diver. Guillermo was very helpful with the booking and quick to respond to any questions over email. I have dove with DMs Eduardo, Isirdo, and Freddy and have had fantastic experiences with each of them. The captain, Chispa, was also incredible and always there to help. Special shoutout to Eduardo! I dove with my mom who is a bit of a nervous diver and she hired him as a private guide. He was very attentive to her (but not overly attentive). He always made sure that she was able to equalize properly and helped her if the current picked up. He really helped her gain her confidence as a diver! And he did so all while pointing out great sea life. We saw eagle rays, lobsters, moray eels, nurse sharks, sea horses, giant crabs, flounders, scorpion fish, and endless species of reef fish. There is a great vibe on the boat and comrade with the stuff. Your guarantees to laugh and smile during your surface intervals. As a female diver, I felt heard and respected. My mom and I are very much looking forward to diving with Salty again!!

We booked a two-tank dive with Salty Endeavors in Cozumel and came away disappointed. The training was weird. Francesco spoke very fast with a strong accent and said upfront that raising hands for questions is not acceptable to him during his training. All four of us struggled to understand him. The first dive was solid, but the second was just average - and we would have much preferred staying on the same reef rather than moving. More concerning were the safety and experience issues. During one dive, Francesco knocked my beginner son’s mask off with his fin at around 35 feet. Our son managed to recover on his own (thxs to training from the guide and Dad), but it was a stressful and avoidable situation - especially for a newer diver and experienced guide. We also brought a GoPro to capture the experience, but were told we couldn’t use it ourselves. We were told they would handle it and supplement with their phones, yet we ended up with zero photos or videos from either dive. That’s probably the most disappointing part - no memories to take with us other than what we can recall ourselves. Overall, not a terrible dive, but far from the experience we expected. The combination of safety concerns and lack of follow-through left us very disappointed.

I absolutely LOVE Salty Endeavors!! This company is such a joy to work with. From the moment you start planning your dives, they are so responsive, helpful, and accommodating. They truly go out of their way to make everything as easy and seamless as possible for you. They handle all the details, answer every questions and make sure you feel totally prepared and confident before you even get in the water. You can really feel how much they care about creating the best possible experience for you! Everyone I’ve met on the team has been amazing, but my friend Francisco (Poncho) always goes above and beyond to make my scuba adventures SO fun, safe, and memorable! I’ve dived with him a few times now, and most recently I brought my mom to Cozumel so she could get certified. She had always been so afraid of the ocean, but Guillermo and Francisco made her feel so safe and comfortable underwater that she completely fell in love with it. After her first dive she was so overwhelmed with gratitude and awe that she actually cried. It was such a beautiful moment and it’s 100% because of the care and patience they bring to what they do. I usually do private dives with Poncho because his knowledge of the ocean is incredible. He has an amazing eye and always points out everything from giant sea turtles to the tiniest little sea slugs hiding in the reef. Not only is he an ocean guru, but also a very entertaining storyteller and just such a good human!! Diving with him is always an adventure and I love exploring the ocean with him!! If you’re diving in Cozumel, I cannot recommend Salty Endeavors enough. They make the entire experience feel easy, safe, and so much fun from start to finish! Can’t wait to get back in the water with them!

Tried drift diving for the first time. Eduardo was our dive master and was so helpful and accommodating. I was pretty nervous about the drift diving but he stayed right by my side throughout the dives (two tank) and pointed out all the incredible things to see there including a shipwreck, a couple of eagle rays, turtle, crabs, tons of fish and more. Highly recommend them!

Amazing staff Henry Schultz and his staff are amazing with both experienced and non skilled divers or snorkelers ! Francisco especially is top rated guide! El Cielo, Paradise,Palancar , and the guidance we have gotten from Salty Endeavors has been nothing but the best over a number of years this is the only group we dive with

Dive center located in the city of Cozumel. The instructors/dive masters (Martín, Francisco, Mario) were well aware of the environment, the dives were exceptionally beautiful in terms of visibility, biodiversity and seabed quality and the organization of the activities very correct. The rental teams proved perfect for those who had not brought their own. The dives last 60 minutes, which adds incentives to this dive center. Highly recommended, we would definitely dive with them again.

Salty Endeavors gave us a great experience! Recommended by our dive shop Midwest Aquatics in KC, we couldn't have asked for better service. Every one from Ricardo and Laila on the phone to the crew - captain Elias, Freddy, Alex, and even their intern Kristen were super kind and helpful! Special thanks to our personal divemaster Joss! He also completed our Nitrox specialty before the dive and was very thorough. As inexperienced divers, we appreciated that he was knowledgeable, professional, respectful, fun, and most importantly, patient and supportive! Thanks so much, Joss! Al & Cindy

Henry and his team were excellent. My instructor, Jose, was everything one would expect an instructor to be: knowledgeable, kind, patient, clear, concise and confidence inspiring. On the boat, Eduardo and Chispas added to the wonderful experience. The Salty Endeavors team is wonderful! When you come to Cozumel, get your certification with them and if you are already certified, dive with them! 😃 Thank you Salty Endeavors!
