5.00Berrie and Marcus were wonderful guides. They took my cousin, nephew and friend out for our first discover dive. Their patience and encouragement were very helpful in making us feel comfortable. The boat is also very nice. Overall a great operation.

4.00We did a discover scuba diving (2 dive) class in April 2022. The instructors were great. They took the time to ensure everyone felt comfortable in the water and made it a fun experience. I wish we could have gone to another dive site because Pelican Rock did not have great visibility. Overall a great intro to scuba!
Fantastic group and experience!

5.00Awesome group. I did my open water cert with Elise and she was fantastic. Patient, knowledgeable, and was a pleasure to dive with. I would recommend Elise and the Dive Cabo team for anyone looking to have a fantastic time exploring the sea!

5.00We highly recommend Dive Cabo. We did discover Scuba on Dec 27th, we have experience in snorkeling, but no scuba experience. This is a perfect for us, who wanted to have the underwater experience without having a certification. On arrival we went through a 15 min video tutorial. Then we went to the boat on open sea, followed by a 1 tan dive. Our guide was very nice. We were a group of 3 , myself with my 2 teenage sons.
Amazing experience

5.00Paolo "paolosphere" and his team were fantastic. Best activity we did all week. He and his team kept my kids feeling safe and they had a great experience. Great first scuba with lots of fish, close encounter with sea lion at Pelican Rock. Super friendly, great price. Will be doing more scuba with this outfit in the future. Erik
Highly recommend

5.00We loved our experience with Dive Cabo. My husband is certified and I am not (I was the only non-certified diver on our excursion). Our instructor, Paulo, was absolutely amazing! He was patient and kind; he did an excellent job working at the individual skill level of each person on our dive. The entire staff was professional, friendly, and competent. The equipment and wetsuits were all in great condition. If you are not a certified diver and are looking for a full resort course experience (with a dive in a pool first), this may not be for you. However, I would encourage you to speak with them regarding their training options.
Paulo made this dive experience excellent

5.00Excellent experience diving with Paulo and shout out Captain Danny as well. They made the trip fun and comfortable. Paulo was very attentive and provided an engaging dive experience, my favorite guide in 15 years of scuba.
