Esperienza fantastica. Abbiamo svolto qui il corso Open Water e l'istruttore, Stefan, ci ha seguito pazientemente passo passo. Le immersioni richieste per la certificazione sono state fatte lungo la barriera corallina mesoamericana, per cui abbiamo imparato in un contesto straordinario. Literally, breathtaking

Moy was amazing!! This was my first time scuba diving again after having a panic attack and I couldnt have asked for a better dive master to ease my way back into it. So grateful for Moy! Will definitely be coming back here the next time I visit PDC!

Esta experiencia de buceo ha sido verdaderamente especial, y gran parte de ello se debe a la paciencia de mi guía Moisés . Tu apoyo me ha dado confianza y me ha permitido disfrutar plenamente de la belleza del mundo submarino. Espero tener la oportunidad de bucear con ustedes en el futuro. Lugar y el personal es 10/10
