My fiancee and I decided to get our open water certification with Barbara at Pluto Dive, I couldn't imagine being treated better or having a better experience than what we had with Pluto Dive. You can expect one on one personal attention and with the expected butterflies and nervousness with going deep into the ocean for the first time there... More

We planned on diving for 3-4 days in Playa at the end of October. We were supposed to dive Mon, Tue, and Thurs. Unfortunately Mother Nature had other ideas and sent a Huricane on Wed. so we couldn't dive our reserved days. Pluto dive was great, they warned us before our hotel or anyone else and even modified the trip... More

Went on a two tank shallow reef dive one day and chac-mool cavern dive at Cenote the next. Plain and simply, Barbara and her crew took care of me. Very knowledgeable of the little secret spots were cool sea animals hang out. On the cavern dive, we had a "turtle" diver with us who had a lot of trouble. Pluto's... More

I had the pleasure to do my full cave course with Alberto from Pluto dive. The course itself is worlds different from the standard PADI deal and will push the limits of your abilities. Be prepared for lots of information, new skills and learning how to deal with the real possibilities of danger, instead of just “seeing things in the... More

We dove with Pluto Dive on January 19/20 2012. We had 4 divers and 1 snorkler with us and they were very accomodating. We had a special request to Gran Cenote and Casa Cenote and they were more than accomodating. Very professional group over all. The tanks were a little late getting to the shop one morning in and we... More

I am extremely satisfied of the course because of the kindness and the professionalism of the instructor, she was able to make me understand the concepts in an easy way and when we were doing practices & immersions she was able to make me feel relaxed so that I never get nervous. She showed me directly how to do the... More

I really should have written this review when I got back from my holiday. Anyway, we did our Padi Open Water dive course with Pluto. Alberto and Barbara were fantastic teachers, very friendly and easy going. I think we ended up doing 12 dives with them in the end as we enjoyed it so much. We thoroughly recommend these guys! More
