My wife and I are now PADI certified and we are so excited! Our instructor Juan Pablo was articulate and very helpful. There was a class on the basics of scuba diving and a short true/false exam at the end of the class. After your test, you apply your newly acquired skills close to the shore before venturing out farther.... More

We used Sand Dollar for snorkeling on our cruise in April 2012. "Didi" was great. We had a 4 year old with us and none of us had ever done any snorkeling. He was patient and very friendly. He took a very nervous 4 year old and had him loving snorkeling by the end. Great company to do business with! More

I had the pleasure of using SAND DOLLAR SPORTS for my beginning scuba experience. They were organized at the pier. Then, once at the site, the instruction was efficiently delivered and we were in our gear. Instructor Juan Pablo made sure we understood what was going to happen, and then it happened as he said. He also made sure we... More

He pulled us with a rope and we enjoyed the experience. The lady from Argentina at the entrance counter was also very friendly... More
