Have you always wanted to try scuba diving? This one day experience is your doorway to the underwater world without a certification. CLASSROOM TRAINING: In the morning, you will meet your instructor and experience a 30 minute training that goes over the basic skills and procedures of scuba diving. SHALLOW WATER TRAINING: You and your instructor head to the beach and will practice the skills you just learned in 3-4 feet of water. DIVE IN THE NATIONAL MARINE PARK: It’s go time! You and your instructor gear up and take a boat ride to two dive sites, MUSA (the underwater museum) and Manchones (coral reef). This program is how many of us got started in diving.

Sebastian and Javy showed amazing patience and professionalism teaching Ivon to dive. They were very helpful and calm. They were able to walk her thru her fears and get her breathing underwater for her first time ever. She can’t wait to go again. Thank you to the whole crew for making it a day to remember. I am a certified diver and also had two great dives. Lots of life to see on the reef!

An incredible experience! I have wanted to scuba dive for years and I have completed most of my online training - our instructor went over and completed some of my PADI competencies with me. They supplied snacks in between both dives. My partner has never dived before and isn’t as comfortable in the water and they explained every single step to us. We both felt safe and looked after!

I definitely recommend doing scuba diving and these guys were the best to do it. It was one of the best experiences of our life so far. The guides Javí and Jonathan were great and the coral reefs in these area are otherworldly. They always made sure everything is okay, that we are safe and guide us through.

I had the pleasure of booking scuba diving with this company for two days in a row, and it was truly the highlight of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff made everything smooth and easy, but what stood out the most was the guides. They were wonderfully attentive and genuinely caring toward my family, making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable both in and out of the water. On both days, they patiently explained the equipment, checked in with us often, and adjusted the pace so that even the less experienced divers in our group could fully enjoy the experience. If you’re looking for a professional, family-friendly scuba diving experience, I highly recommend booking here. They were attentive and provided support to me and my older children (20 and 17).

This is a terrific operation. I already have my dive certification and wanted to introduce my kids - 14 and 18 - to diving. We showed up and were greeted by the crew. Our instructor, Nina, did a great job with my kids on the instruction work and then led us to the requisite practice dive at the beach. From there we joined several other dive groups on their boat and headed out for two dives. We were in the water 40 min for each dive and Nina stayed just with us the entire time. She was a great underwater guide and the other dive groups on their boat also seemed to have a terrific experience. Isla Mujeres waters offer amazing visibility, making it a terrific early dive experience. I highly recommend.

Professional and experienced team. I was quite anxious whilst doing the safety skills under water and not sure if I could complete the course - but our instructor Dani was so good at reading me and encouraged me to keep on going. He held my hand the entire time during both dives which made me feel calm and I ended up enjoying it and successfully doing both dives. I felt super proud of myself after finishing and so grateful that Dani accommodated to my needs so I could still get a good experience and overcome my fears. My partner who wasn’t scared like me also had a great experience. We saw a baby turtle and a sting ray and lots of other cool things and would definitely recommend this try-dive to anyone not ready for a full padi course. Thank you so much Dani and team! If you’re cold natured, I’d recommend to ask for a wet suit before going out to the sea. It wasn’t offered and we were just diving in our normal swimsuits but I got quite cold (even though the water is still warm) and would personally have enjoyed wearing a wetsuit. (Or maybe this could be something that the team could offer at the beginning?)

We learned a lot about diving, which we didn't do certification. The guide Bruno very clear, always attentive that we understand and are safe and comfortable. Very friendly boat people. The places we saw (MUSA and smudge reef) are spectacular, full of life. The long and very pleasant dives. I want more! Actually, it's not to miss it.

Best experience of my life. It is both challenging and a peaceful adventure at the same time. Nina is an incredible instructor. She really guides you and makes you feel safe, so you don’t have to worry. Lucia took some beautiful pictures. Great vibes overall and would 1000% recommend it. Jad

Danny and the rest of the dive team did a great job at teaching us the basics and taking care of us on the two dives we did, we had an absolute blast and felt safe the whole time. You start by learning some critical skills in shallow water, then there’s some downtime while the other people in your dive group arrive, then you’ll head out to the dive locations. Overall spent about 3.5 hrs out on/in the water. Couldn’t recommend this enough for anyone interested in seeing some sea life and the underwater museum.
