Klauss and Luis have that "Can do, let's go diving" attitude with the experience, the background and local knowledge to pull it off. Small groups with that personal touch making an entertaining and flexible dive trip. As an experienced diver, this is the kind of operation I look for on my dive travels. more

Great Dive

I Dive with Luis, he was very supportive. The dive was really nice, we saw a lot of fishes and coral including a turttle and a really big fish. I have dive before in different places, but this experience was one of the best. I really recomend Playa Scuba for further dives more

My wife and I were very happy with Playa Scuba. Both Klaus and Luis were quite supportive of us considering our noobie dive skills. For me these dives were my 10th and 11th real dives in my dive log beyond our mandatory two deep dives to get our certificate. They were very helpful from the shore to the boat and... more

...what can I say...if after one year I came back in Playa to dive with Playascuba, I think there must be a reason, right? There you can find the BEST PRICE/QUALITY RATIO of the entire Riviera Maya with the plus of real fun and professionality. After two years in a row diving with them, I can say that the two... more

Did my open water dives with Martin and Luis and also two cenote dives with Fernando. Martin and Luis were excellent instructors. They were patient and adapted the dive to my skill level. Fernando was very knowledgeable about the cenote and led a great dive. I do not have a lot of experience diving, but when i dive again in... more

I needed two more open water dives to complete my PADI certification, and it was a huge plus that Playa Scuba can provide that expert oversight. I arrived early for the dive and got a chance to know Klaus a little better. He's a fascinating guy with a lot of diving experience AND a lot of diverse life experiences. He... more

We got certified with Playa Scuba and definitely would dive with them again. Our dive instructor, Martin, was thorough and patient with us and we had a great time. Diving in Playa del Carmen was beautiful and the people at Playa Scuba definitely made our trip extra special and enjoyable. We can't wait to go back! more

This was my first time diving at Playa del Carmen. Klaus, Eva, and Luis were fun to meet, and they took good care of us. I recommend them highly. Klaus took us to two cenotes, which were exceptional. Since Klaus was one of the initial explorers in these cenotes, we got special insight into them. He really cares about preserving... more

Playa Scuba provided me with a GREAT, personal scuba diving experience. The shop is small and friendly and will really work with you and your level/schedule. I would recommend this dive shop primarily for their cenote diving - this opportunity should not be missed if you are in the region. Perfect water and great guides. I could not believe how... more

I had been planning and planning to get my scuba license. I guess the stars aligned. My hubby and I headed to Mexico for a much needed break and headed to Playa del Carmen. Great spot though in some places it feels like a California strip mall. Regardless, I found Playa Scuba on Trip Advisor and I really could not... more
