Beto and Mario took me out for 3 days, 2 dives each. It was GREAT!! Beto seems to create air. And he found many things I would not have seen without him. Wonderful!!! Mark Henry

We did a wild open water dive with Luis. The surf was rough but the crew took great care of my 12 years old daughter and I, Luis Cauich Moreno was a great teacher and positive upbeat guide.
Thanks for a great Dive!!!!

Let me know if you ever get near Saba.

Sorry we did not get to fish, next time, as I will be back.

Jesus & Beto were Great dive instructors. We had a group of 6 friends and most of had not been diving for 3 years or more. Jesus had us drown the first day and gave us a refresher on dive and safety basics. It was great because it reminded us how important it is to be careful and safe diving.
Both Jesus and Beto have great respect for the reefs and marine environment around Akumal. They took us on beautiful sea and cenotes dives and were careful to keep everyone happy and safe throughout each trip.

Tanks for a wonderful time!

As always, the people of Akumal were wonderful. The Dive Shop was great; Ana found dive sites spanning a wide spectrum of environments that each suited our group despite the wide range of experience and comfort level beneath the water. Beto was an excellent dive master as always and his ability to spot wildlife always amaze me. Chino is an excellent captain who is always seen to the needs of the passengers on his boat and this was very appreciated for our group… I am glad that he is still with the shop as well. It is always a welcome surprise to have so many familiar faces associated with Akumal Dive Shop; this has a noticeable impact on the expertise, courtesy and quality of the services they provide. This trip was the fist time for me to meat Jesus, he is a great assist to the shop and definitely a good fit from the diver’s perspective.
I hope he is around for many years to come.

I warm and friendly thank you to the entire Akumal Dive shop staff!!! This was my first time to bring a group of my friendly down to Akumal and the Dive Shop have done a good job, showing them why Akumal is such an especial place for me. Thanks!

Luis,

Greetings from Washington State!

We just wanted to thank you once again for your wonderful dive instruction. We all had the times of our lives together. You are the best, and made the entire experience very pleasant and wonderful.

We are home now. Returned to Seattle late last night around 9:00 PM PDT. Washington is very cold and wet at the moment. We are all wishing we were back on your beach....

Hope all is well - keep in touch!

From Michael

Hello from England.

There are so many things that the Akumal Dive Shop do well, I just had to write to you to say thank you. As I was new to diving, I was a little nervous as I had only dived in a Quarry before and was unsure about the sea. The staff including Moses and Rambo were only too happy to give me some reassurance.

I also have to credit the knowledge that Moses and Rambo have of the sea. Particularly because, as I am only 12, I am limited to 12metres. Thankfully we very rarely crossed this barrier and at the same time, still seeing some fascinating creatures.

Another positive is, as soon as I had my first dive I was hooked. On my 5th dive Rambo appreciated the fact that I had already dived in some of the areas that they take you to. So he asked me where I'd been, and then took me somewhere else. Thank you.

P.S. I'm already training for a deep dive next year, Rambo!!

Michael

Jesus, Gonzalo

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you and your shop for a great vacation. The divers in my party were very happy with your services. The Cenote dive I did was incredible. I really appreciate the laid back, friendly attitude of your employees. Special thanks to Divemaster Luis who I felt did a great job and seemed genuinely interested in making sure we had a good dive. Now I have a summer of diving in Lake Travis and wishing I was back in your neighborhood. I'll see ya'll next year if not sooner(if work allows).

Thanks again

From Spring

It was a pleasure meeting you and Mula and everyone at the Dive Shop. We wish you conitnued success.

Dear Dive Akumal:

Four of us chartered your 36’ Kolaris Catamaran last week and had an unforgettable time. It was the highlight of our vacation. Everything was so well organized. As soon as we arrived, Captain Luis and First Mate Gaspar were waiting for us with a cooler iced down and fishing tackle ready. We couldn’t believe it when they said they sailed almost every day because with their enthusiasm we thought it was a rare treat for them as well. While sailing, we caught beautiful Mahi Mahi and King Fish and Luis and Gaspar fried them up to perfection along with their wonderful ceviche, guacamole and fruit in the beautiful secluded cove. Luis and Gaspar were outgoing, witty and fun (not to mention great sailors). I commend you and your staff on a job well done and look forward to returning someday for another sail. Thank you for such a memorable excursion.

Sincerely, Alicia Pirtle
