Buceo en el oceano en Akumal y la Riviera Maya

I recently completed my Advanced Open Water with Eduardo, Sarah, and David — and I honestly can’t fault a single one of them. David took me through the deep and photography dives, Sarah guided me on Nitrox, Peak Performance Buoyancy, and Navigation, and Eduardo led me on the incredible bull shark dive. Each of them was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. An amazing team and a fantastic experience from start to finish!

Ok, it has taken us a little while to navigate Google, but here goes a review for the best dive centre in Quintana Roo. Being in the hospitality sector ourselves, we understand the importance of going the extra mile for customers and the team at Blue Experience do that... and some! We had 8 amazing dives with them last week around the reefs at Akumal, and when we said we fancied a night dive and a wreck dive, they picked us from the hotel and chauffeured us to the C-56-gun boat wreck at Puerto Morelos. Eduardo and Sarah accommodated us with a smile and total professionalism. Put simply, if you are fancy recreational dives on your vacation or to take your first steps underwater with PADI courses in Mexico, we cannot recommend Blue Experience highly enough. Look no further.

It’s rare to find a company with 100% 5 star reviews, but this dive company absolutely deserves it! If you’re looking for a friendly, small group diving around Akumal Bay (The Turtle Place) look no further than Blue Experience Diving! I had 3 days of diving with Sarah and Eduardo, the owners. During the 4 open water dives in Akumal we saw 9 turtles, and a lot of beautiful coral, fish and very clear blue water. The third day was a 2 tank cenote cavern dive at Dos Ojos, the two eyes. The second of which surfaces in the bat cave! This was a particularly unique experience, and less scary than it sounds. I was stayed at the Grand Sirenis, and they gave me a lift to Akumal each day where they rent the boat and pilot to access the local reefs. They typically offer 2 dives per day, either 8:30 & 10:30 or 10:30 and 12:30. Full training is offered in multiple languages, between the instructors I believe they can cover Spanish, English, German and French. See my photos for some examples of the scenery. Thanks again Sarah & Eduardo for some great diving!

My husband and I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience diving with Sara and Eduardo. Blue Experience diving is the perfect place for someone looking to get certified or check out the amazing dive spots located near Cancun. Whether you need a skills refresher or just want a guide to help you explore the area, this team will help you out. Our guide made us feel safe/well equipped and we were lucky enough to see nurse sharks, sea turtles and a whole array of fish. The team was incredible with communication, recommendations for food/stays in the area and overall they were just good people. We will certainly be reaching out next time we visit!

Can't speak highly enough of Blue Experience Diving. Eduardo was fantastic with my partner on his refresher dive. The kit was excellent, clear briefings, just us two and Eduardo and no other divers on the site. I've done 150+ dives and very few dive centres match up to this one.

Phenomenal experience for my first ocean dives! Eduardo was thorough and safe while making the dives a breeze. He educated us along the way and was a clear expert on the dive sites. Will be diving with Blue Experience again any time I can.

I had a breathtaking dive through Dos Ojos cenote with Eduardo! He has the timing down so we were first in, on our surface interval when the next gaggle of divers went through, and had the line all to ourselves again for the second dive. The equipment I rented was in great shape and he did a thorough job with the dive brief. I felt comfortable and prepared. Sarah and Eduardo were professional and easy to communicate with. I’d absolutely dive with them again! Added bonus: they have a very fluffy friendly doggy I met in the dive shop ☺️

Did four cenote dives with Eduardo. The whole team are fantastic, they know the best places to dive as well as how to avoid the crowds. Safety is always paramount and I felt totally at ease with them. I would definitely recommend Blue Experience to anyone visiting Riviera Maya

Excellent experience from start to finish, far better than the diving school based in the hotel I was staying at just around the corner from Blue Experience shop. The staff at blue experience diving were genuinely friendly, helpful and professional, and multi lingual and definitely not pushy for sigh up. I was on a PADI open water divers course with another person, so a 2 to 1 ratio the dive instructor made us both feel at ease, and managing both of our different levels of ability, on the last dive we was joined by 2 other divers, but because of the weather we was unable to dive at sea so we was taken to a cenote (fresh water around the root systes of the mangroves) a very beautiful place to dive and a different experience to being at sea. I left having passed my course and a massive sense of achievement. Thanks to all the great staff there it was brilliant and you made it a awesome experience.

We just spent two days diving with Sara and Eduardo and it was absolutely amazing. Their customer service goes above and beyond expectations. They are very experienced divers as well. What we liked the most is that Akumal Beach is a small town without the touristy craziness of Playa or Cozumel, so finding a very well established local operation like this one in Akumal is perfect. We are definitely coming back! Thank you Sara and Eduardo for taking such good care of us! Kari
