Hace un mes tuve la oportunidad de hacer un bautismo de buceo con Ian y fue una experiencia increíble!! Nos explicó todo muy bien y estuvo muy pendiente todo el rato de todo, haciendo que la actividad fuera muy segura en todo momento. Recomendable al 100%!! Muchas gracias por todo!

Never did scuba diving before. Iann was my instructor, clearly explained how to do it then took me 1 on 1 into the Catalina Islands area for two dives. He pointed out a lot of fish and even prodded a squid out of a crevice for me to see! I felt very safe and had a great time. The crew was fun and everyone had a great time! Would highly recommend it.

Highly recommended dive shop! Me and my boyfriend Matteo had six amazing dives over three days, and Iann, Risky, and the whole crew were absolutely fantastic, both above and below the water. They are incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, and diving with them was not only safe and professional but also a lot of fun. We saw an incredible amount of marine biodiversity, including countless fish, turtles, and sharks. Thanks for such a great experience! Pura vida!! 🤙🌊

Great snorkelling trip for our family of 5. Staff were all friendly and knowledgeable and kept us safe in and out of the water. Equipment was all good quality too. We saw turtles, a shark, lots of colourful fish and even a ray as we came back into shore. Thanks for a memorable trip!

Abbiamo fatto una gita di snorkeling con questo centro, propostaci dal nostro hotel a Tamarindo. La gita non mi è piaciuta per nulla, abbiamo fatto quasi un'ora e mezzo di barca per arrivare al primo sito per immergerci per quasi un'ora, il luogo non è nulla di che, fondali anonimi e poca varietà di pesci. c'era la guida che guidava il gruppo però eravamo troppa gente e tutti ammassati perché ci diceva sempre di stare vicini. poi, dopo un'altra ventina di minuti di barca, siamo andati su un secondo luogo, che però è stato terribile. C'era molto vento e l'acqua era agitata e siamo stati quasi un'ora in acqua a non poter fare nulla se non stare ammollo. è vero che non è colpa loro se il mare è agitato, però se quel luogo quel giorno non è indicato per fare snorkeling, portaci da un'altra parte. Così non va bene!

​Tuve una muy buena experiencia. Celebré mi cumpleaños buceando con ellos y fue lo mejor. ​Mi guía Iann se encargó de que todo saliera perfecto durante las 2 inmersiones. Además, todo el staff fue amable, la logística súper ordenada, el barco impecable, con frutas, bebidas y snacks a bordo.

¡Lo pasé muy bien! Pude ver variedad de fauna marina y al final nuestra guía Marie nos enseñó en un libro de todos los peces que vimos haciendo snorkel. Quiero destacar a la guía Marie que en todo momento se mostró amable y atenta, pese a no hablar español y que mi inglés no es el mejor, ella tuvo paciencia para repetirme las instrucciones en inglés. Además, es muy buena encontrando a los fauna que hay para ver, y me ayudó a repasar la técnica de inmersión en apnea. La actividad se hace en las Islas Santa Catalina que son muy bellas para admirar, y puedes observar a los piqueros de cocos cazando peces. Sin duda lo recomiendo completamente, muy buena experiencia.

Great dive at Catalina islands. Saw sharks, turtles, eels, and a large manta ray. Siri our guide was super helpful and patient. The overall process of getting from the hotel and into the water could not have been easier.
