“The whole experience was amazing from start to finish, we would personally like to thank Angel (our guide) as he was exceptionally patient, supportive and helpful for our first time scuba diving. He does not rush you and lets you go at your own pace, and will ensure that you are having a good time while being as safe as possible. We saw lots of sea life such as an octopus, lobster, a large variety of tropical fish and even Barracudas. In addition to the dive, we also were given a snorkel set to use while at the park free of charge. The park itself is about a 10 minute…”

It was also very convenient that they picked/dropped us up a the hotel dock. Renting the equipment was easy and efficient. The diving off Cozumel is fantastic, my favorite was diving the reef wall. Seeing the deep blue dropping off to infinity as you swim along a reef wall is awe inspiring.”
