5.00This was my first official open water dive and I could not have had a better crew for my first dive. Our scuba guide, Daleth, had our safety at the top of mind and ensuring that it was a fun and interactive experience. Daleth is extremely knowledgeable about the marine life and its importance to the ecosystem. For divers looking for an English speaking guide, Daleth is fluent in English and there were no questions about the instructions she communicated to us. Captain Cory made sure that he got us safely to our dive destinations and extremely helpful in getting our gear on and ready for our dives. We will definitely use La Paz Explorer on our future dives!
