Another great dive w Dr Dive

Eric_R, Apr 2026
Perfect one or 2 tank dive. The reef quality and visibility excellent. Service is good and there is always a guide showing you good stuff. Panga boats leave from the beach in front of Ya Ya Beach club also a fun spot. They will work with your schedule for cruise ship people and they answer Whatsapp inquiries Would recommend, second time we used them in 6 months. You will not be disappointed if your scuba diving

Outstanding dive

Julianne_E, Jul 2025
Amazing dive, saw so many different fish and coral. Outstanding and attentive PADI outfit- paid close and personal attention to my daughter who was a newly certified diver. Never dove Costa Maya/Mahahual before but adding this to must dive every time. Charlie was amazing.

Old, faulty equipment.

Elaine_L, Dec 2024
The dive master was very attentive and staff was very nice. However, the equipment was falling apart. The cord to deflate my bcd broke off. And my regulator made noises and water misted into ny mouth with every breath. It really ruined my dive. And also, while on the dive, my husband noticed that one of the hands on his depth gauge had fallen off mid dive. I would not feel safe diving again with this dive shop.
