I found Cancun Scuba Center here on tripadvisor and the 5 star review was dead on. Juan Carlos and his staff are great people. I had 6 dives total. 2 reef dives and 4 cenotes dives, which is Juan Carlos' specialty. I had never dove the cenotes before but felt very at ease because of Juan Carlos' pre-dive planning and...

I was very happy to have Juan Carlos as my instructor. Not only did he make me feel at ease, he is also a very experienced teacher who knows... More

I never did it before so I wanted to make sure that the person that certified me had enough experience, professionalism and that was accessible to any questions I could possibly have. I met Juan Carlos Garrido (owner) of Cancun Scuba Center next to hotel... More

I did 4 dives in 2 days in January 2012. The team of Cancun Scuba Center is amazing and the people are very good at what they are doing. I hadn't been diving for 1 1/2 years before I went to Cancun so I was a little bit nervous if I still remember everything, but the diving instructors explained everything... More

I began to dive with Cancun Scuba Center in 2009, when I started living in Cancún. I just only dived in my certification PADI (4 divings), a year before, and I had some problems with my diving. But with Juan Carlos and the staff (Ñero, Martín...) I learned to dive better. Now I have almost 90 divings with them, and... More
