Cancún · SCUBA DIVING
Reef, wreck, sculpture gallery or a cenote cavern with a torch — four completely different dives sold from the same marinas. These 15 state the certification each needs, the depth, and whether discovery dives are genuinely beginner-run.

“Gonzalo, Eulysses and the captain were all amazing. I was unfortunately the weak link of the group: after getting in the water, I got too panicky to do the first dive, kept on getting water in my mask and couldn’t bring myself to get it out. I stayed on the boat and threw my guts out from sea sickness lol! Nonetheless they didn’t give up on me and I’m so grateful for that! When my stomach gave me a break the captain recoached me on how to breathe and clear the water out of my mask and all that, which made me confident enough to go on the second dive.…”

“This was my very first time scuba diving, and I don’t even know how to swim! I can float and do a simple dog paddle, but that’s about it. At the beginning, I kept feeling like water was getting inside my nose, which scared me a lot because it made me feel like I was drowning. I later realized it was just a sensation — our faces have a lot of sensitive nerves that react to water and pressure — and I had simply forgotten that I was breathing through my mouth, not my nose. Lars was absolutely incredible — his passion for diving truly shows. Thank you for providing…”

“I was having difficulty relaxing. It was our first dive but I wanted to share the experience with my children. Pepe was very patient and walked me through several times while taking a lesson in the pool. He and the rest of the crew helped me along the way and made sure we had a good time. Thanks for the memories!”
Cancun 2-session scuba for certified divers, private boat, gear and snacks included, MUSA sculptures and reefs.
“The dive themselves were good, and our dive master was excellent. I do however have 2 problems, the first because we booked two 60 ft reef dives and got 2 30 ft reef dives. Second is we shared a boat with a dive class, which takes much longer than certified dives. The end result is we were almost an hour late back to the dock and missed our transportation back to our hotel. Our first dive with this company was great, so this one was a bit of a disappointment.”

“Absolutely amazing, my husband and I tried scuba on this tour for the first time. We enjoyed practising the skills in the shallow water on the beach, Pedro our instructor was great at making us feel confident about breathing underwater. We then had a break for lunch (not included), then we got to do 2 dives. The first was at the MUSA and the second at a nearby reef. I really enjoyed getting the chance to do two dives, as I felt much more confident on the second dive and it was amazing as the reef had so many colourful fish to see. My husband wasn’t that keen to even…”

“Call ahead to confirm your trip before you show up to their shop. They didn’t bother calling me back and canceling my trip. I booked a 2 tank dive the day before (about 20 hours before). When I showed up at the time on my Viator ticket, the employee at the shop claimed I was as booked for the following day. At first, he tried calling other shops to fit me into their trip. After that failed, he tried to persuade me to do the two dives the following day, 12 hours before my flight home. I courteously declined and received a full refund. The first shop I booked the…”
