Laura was very friendly with our questions and doubts about diving in Cozumel and what to expect and to see, we did 02 day dives. Charlie was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and attentive. I would definitely recommend Phantom Divers! More

My boyfriend and I visited Phantom Divers in October of 2011, we did out 4 open water dives with them and couldn't have picked a better shop. Right from the moment of booking we had great service who answered all of our questions very fast. Laura was an absolute sweet heart to deal with, and our dive instructor Erick was... More

I did several dives with,and organized by Phantom and they were all great. The staff is friendly, courteous, and skilled. Laura booked everything I asked for, Charles took us as far south in Playa as we could go, and had a great two tank trip with him. Mario took us on a great Cenote dive, and kept us safe. The... More

I was looking to do a shark dive while in Mexico this January, and I found Phantom Divers through a google search. I had done dives in the Bahamas where reef sharks were around, but not close to you, and cage diving in Hawaii where they feed the sharks in front of you, but neither of those experiences were the...

This place was recommended by the manager at the condo building where we stayed. She said she only uses them (and doesn't get any kick backs for suggesting them, and I believed her). My husband and I are not certified, so just stopped their for supplies since we were going to snorkel on our own. The gentleman who helped us... More

We just finished our open water course at Phantom Divers and had an amazing time. Ramon was our instructor. His English was excellent which was important for us as that is our only spoken language, and he was very patient and knowledgeable. Day 1 was the initial instruction and pool skills in the morning. The pool was a little gross... More
