Trusted diving centre - I started by completing the e-learning in a little less than 10 hours.
I then did my dives and it was incredible!
My instructor, Nina, was be listening, and attentive to the smooth running of my training and with each dive !
I recommend this diving centre with my eyes closed. Everyone is trustworthy and very welcoming.
I will return to them without hesitation if I have the opportunity one day!

OW certification and amazing dives - Aqua Adventures helped us book a dive stay package that included a hotel, all transfers from the airport to the island, an open water certification for me, and a set of fun dives for my traveling companion. Jessica was super easy to work with by email to lock in what we wanted to do, our budget for the hotels, and making sure we were within easy walking distance of everything to avoid the $100/day golf cart most people need.
Danny was my instructor for my four certification dives and two fun dives. He was firm but clear showing me the scuba skills and making sure I could do them independently. He was calming and reassuring, but definitely in charge, exactly how a trainer needs to be to provide a safe learning environment. Every dive I had with Danny was smooth. Even when practicing more difficult skills, we did them thoroughly with zero panicking. Sleeping sharks and palais was my favorite dive. Thank you Danny for helping me enter the world of diving!!
Side note - Nina was on two of my fun dives and was assisting another diver. She was our caboose underwater. On shore she is happy and funny but underwater she is a total boss. With Danny guiding in front and Nina keeping us in check in the back, we had the ultimate fun underwater experience with supreme safety, constant okay checks and air checks and zen safety stops. Thank you Nina and Danny!

Open Water Dive Certification - I completed my Open Water Certification with Aqua Adventures. My guide Pedro taught me everything I need to know and helped me feel safe under water. I had a great time and saw some beautiful spots and animals under water. If you're thinking about diving on Isla Mujeres go ahead it's so worth it!

Open Water - This was my very first scuba experience, and my instructor, Daniel, was very thorough, patient, and encouraging! Everyone at the dive shop was great and I would definitely recommend Aqua Adventures. When I visit Isla Mujeres again, I will definitely book a dive with them!

AOW - Excellent group of people that make you feel like family. The instructors go out of their way to teach in a way that’s understandable but fun and interesting. The boat crews are accommodating and professional. I highly recommend.

Quality equipment, knowledgeable staff, recommended - We did our OW and AOW with Nina and Pedro the instructors at Aqua, organised by Jason and Jess in the office
All the staff we worked with were friendly and helpful. The team worked well with the boat captain making sure the dives for the day were safe and appropriate for conditions, tweaking things to make sure we had the best experience every day.
Nina started our journey and made sure we fully understood everything we needed to know to dive safely and was a supportive, understanding and friendly instructor.
Pedro was really supportive and knowledgeable, helping me to overcome some issues with the strong current and, having grown up diving this area, was able to answer any question you could think to ask and provide lots of info about the undersea creatures and landscape and navigation of the area.
Jason put time into sorting out some PADI admin issues and adjusted our course days/trips to make sure the dives worked well during our time on the island.
Overall, the equipment is good quality and the staff are friendly and focused and I would definitely recommend the outfit as a base for diving the area

Really good teachers, who are passionate and pacient. - I took the Open Water Diver course and chose to learn the theoretical part of the course on the classroom. The class was well thought and the practical part was fun and on some very cool diving sites.

Awesome! - If you are looking to learn how to dive , highly suggest signing up with aqua adventures. I feel lucky to have had both Pedro and Emanuel as instructors, and Jason & ara there for support and encouragement before and after each dive day, along with the rest of the crew & El Capitan Wilbert.
Pedro taught me crucial skills and instilled a sense of responsibility in following safety procedures while also keeping it fun. My last few days were spent learning from Emmanuel, who helped me feel comfortable and confident in thee deeper waters. I felt so relaxed and will feel forever grateful for his patience and ability to help me safely and calmly navigate the underwater world as a beginner. He is an amazing and supportive coach, clearly so passionate about diving.
The MUSA museum was incredible, but the manchones reefs really stole my heart. I’ll never forget swimming and drifting along with the beautiful fishes, admiring the colorful reef gardens, saying hello to the big lobsters and a cute nurse shark. I will never forget this experience, and have already signed up for my first dive here in Seattle in a few weeks! Thank you so so much.

Highly recommend aqua adventures for divers at any level - Amazing experience! So glad we waited to do our open dive certification with Aqua Adventures instead of close to home in a lake. Everyone that we worked with made us feel eddies and confident each step of the way. From getting fitted for our rental equipment, the pre-dive instructions, the dives themselves, and discussing how everything went afterwards. Highly recommend.!
