5.00Perfect place to try Scuba for the first time. While I was certified 20 years ago, this was my 15 year old son’s first experience and the instructor had him on the water, practicing the skills, and swimming after just 15-20 minutes of introduction.

5.00This was an excellent experience for my daughter and I. Luis and Alex were fantastic instructors. I wasn’t feeling comfortable at first but with the guidance, encouragement (and a wetsuit thank you so much ) we spent our time exploring and discovering the beauty under the sea! My daughter caught on quickly and talked about it all day. Highly recommend - we will be back 😊 Thank you
Wonderful experience in a friendly environment
