My two teenage sons and I recently had the incredible opportunity to dive with Sea Horse Diving School, and it was exactly what we hoped! As new divers, we were a bit anxious, but Sonia’s and Fulvio’s professionalism, kindness, and reassuring nature put us at ease.

Through the week, we dove with Sea Horse on 4 days. We enjoyed multiple shore dives, and each one was expertly guided to ensure our safety while maximizing our experience and enjoyment. The instructors were patient, providing clear instructions and valuable tips that enhanced our skills and confidence underwater.

The highlight of our trip was the breathtaking night dive at Macabuca. It was a magical experience, where we saw 5 octopuses, big crabs, lobster and many fish species. The underwater world at night was captivating, and a thrill.

Sea Horse Diving School went above and beyond in making our dives fun and memorable. Their dedication to safety, coupled with their friendly and encouraging demeanor, made a significant impact on us and our confidence as divers. We can't recommend them enough, especially for new divers looking for a top-notch diving experience. We are already planning our next trip back to explore more with them! Go with Sea Horse, you’ll be glad you did.

What started off as my 1st ever recreational dive soon turned into a diver's certification course. Fulvio is highly knowledgeable and very experienced and i have never felt so calm and at ease starting something new like diving. He made it so easy to master the skills and understand the art of diving that i fell in love with diving as soon as i took my first breath under water. I am now a certified Open Water Diver and i will continue my dives with Seahorse Diving School for other advanced Padi certification courses. I would absolutely recommend them for beginners like myself who are clueless and not quite sure of how far they would like to end up with their diving skills because of their thoroughness in ensuring that you have an unforgettable experience, you master the right knowledge you need to stay safe while enjoying the adventure too.

I can't say enough good things about these guys. Really highly recommend Seahorse Diving School. Sonia and Fulvio are wonderful - they tailored a dive program just for us so my husband and I (experienced divers) could dive with Fulvio while Sonia taught our 9 year old daughter to dive. Sonia had such amazing patience and enthusiasm and filled our daughter with confidence and excitement for diving whilst making us feel completely relaxed that she was in very safe hands so we could enjoy some lovely guided dives with Fulvio. They even have their own special sized equipment for younger kids so they're not trying to cope with full sized adult tanks and masks etc. I have been diving for 25 years all around the world and these guys were hands down the best we could have hoped for to introduce our daughter to diving. They teach adults too! If you want a great experience diving in Cayman, without great boats full of tons of people definitely choose these guys.

Sea Horse Diving is the BEST place to achieve your scuba certification! We were certified in October with our 10 year old son. We highly recommend learning to scuba dive with Fulvio and Sonia. They are exceptional, professional trainers who take the time needed to ensure you understand and can perform the skills. We had a lot of fun learning and we are now enjoying recreational diving! They are the only team that we trust with our family. Two of our college age children are enrolled to learn during Christmas break. Additionally, we are aiming to enhance our training by enrolling in the Introduction to Advanced Open Water Certification classes.

Having scuba certification opens up a whole new world of possibilities to explore and enjoy island life!

I just returned from a trip to Grand Cayman, where I finished my open water diving certification. I am still completely blown away but the experience that I had working with Fulvio! From the moment I called him ahead of time, he quickly shared availability, answered my questions, and outlined what our four dives would look like. My sister is already certified as an Advanced diver, and it was no problem for her to come along for a small fee. I'd been concerned that I would have to go by myself and that she and I wouldn't be able to truly dive together.
Through the entire experience in Grand Cayman, Fulvio was extremely kind, fun, and very experienced. I always felt calm and safe with him. He even met our parents prior to our first dives which everyone really appreciated. I am 31...but still :D We had so much fun that we went out with him for two more dives once I was certified! This experience made my trip. If you can dive with Fulvio, don't hesitate and go do it. Also...ask him about where to go to dinner and he'll hook it up. Fulvio, grazie mille!

Fulvio and Sonia are excellent dive instructors. We are a family of 5 and our older children (14,12) just got advance certified. Our youngest (8) will start now with the seal team course and can’t wait to learn from Fulvio and Sonia. We can highly recommend Seahorse diving!

Phenomenal experience with Sonia and Fulvio! 100% recommend Seahorse Diving School for anyone interested in scuba! I was nervous about getting my scuba certification, and they made the experience both comfortable and exciting. I did a discovery dive with them in January 2023, and I came back to them in January 2024 to finish my certification in the open water because I wanted to be able to dive with friends. Sonia made sure we went at my pace and was very patient as I practiced skills. She took me to multiple gorgeous spots around Grand Cayman at Eden Rock and Lighthouse, and I had such a wonderful time! She made the entire process easy and fun. You see a lot of other people learning to dive at some of these sites, and you can really tell that Sonia and Fulvio know what they are doing and are teaching you the best way to do things for your enjoyment and safety. When I did several dives with friends after finishing my certification, I felt very ready and comfortable to dive because of how well-prepared I was thanks to Sonia and Fulvio. 10/10 would do this again with Seahorse Diving School and would tell any of my friends and family to go to them!

On vacation with my 26 year old nephew who wanted to try the Discovery Dive. I am already Dive Master certified. Seahorse was recommended to us by another facility. Grateful I am that they did. From the moment you shake Fulvio's hand there is a sense of welcome and trust. I watched as Fulvio took my nephew through all the preliminaries on land. He was patient and tailored his approach to my nephew's responses. Then it was time for the pool. Fulvio hand-walked my nephew immediately from entering by the ladder. Fulvio patiently taught all the basics with care and reassurance. Then was time for wandering into the shore dive portion. Fulvio immediately calmed my nephew's apprehensions as we three embarked on a remarkable dive. As a PADI professional I have seen many instructors and dive masters. I can say Fulvio is at the top of his profession. Never was Favio distracted by the beautiful surroundings. I watched as he escorted my nephew "by the hand", always inspecting the equipment, and communicating reassurances constantly with my nephew. We could not have found a better instructor for a Discovery Dive. Some people get turned off by a first dive. Thanks to Fulvio's skills and caring my nephew is going forward to start class training for his open water certificate. Thank you Fulvio.

I dove with Fulvio twice during our recent trip to Grand Cayman. Our first dive was to the Amphitrite Mermaid statue off of Sunset House Resort, south of Georgetown. This dive was amazing, the visibility was outstanding, and Fulvio provided an excellent dive briefing prior to our dive. Our second dive was two days later, to the Kittiwake shipwreck off the coast of West Bay public dock. Fulvio coordinated the entire boat trip to the Kittiwake and accommodated my need for a larger tank for more bottom time. He also coordinated my partner to join me and snorkel the Kittiwake. The Kittiwake is everything a diver could hope it to be. Swim throughs, marine life, fellow divers; all great obstacles to challenge ones diving skills and allow for growth in developing a better diver. The customer service we received from Fulvio on our curated diving and snorkeling trips was truly next to none. I could not speak higher of the Seahorse Diving School and the outstanding customer service provided to us. Thank you!!

Seahorse Diving (Fulvio and Sonia) are world class and provide and absolutely phenomenal experience. The customer service and focus on safety are world class! I did a refresher session with Fulvio before diving Eden Rock with Fulvio and he was absolutely outstanding. He made the dive and experience one I will never forget and I can’t thank him enough. I highly recommend anyone and everyone use Seahorse diving when you are in Cayman. Thank you Fulvio! 👍🤙
