Leo is highly communicative and puts his customers first. We had Diego for our tour and felt very taken care of along the way. He caught a very large Barracuda and even offered a portion of the fish to us for lunch. A few tips for others, playa del carmen location was quite choppy on the day. Please bring anti-sea sick medicine! In addition, for those who paid a deposit and are looking to pay the balance on the day, be sure to bring cash as there are transaction costs associated with a credit card swipe.…

This was the highlight of my trip to Playa del Carmen by far (and it has been a excellent trip, so that’s saying a lot). I had no experience free diving and in fact, had a bad experience snorkeling a year ago with a different company, so I was both excited and nervous about my first trip back in the open water. Diego was very patient with me and explained every step carefully on the “Beginner” tour. First, we got comfortable with diving, then firing the spear gun— every step was carefully taught before the fishing began. I was feeling very comfortable and confident in the water in no time at all. I felt 100% safe the entire time both with Diego and on the boat. I didn’t quite get a fish but that did not surprise me give that I was a total beginner— I was SO close to one of fishes that I feel sure if I had booked another day, I could have gotten one. Diego got three big fish, so I had plenty to take home and it was inspiring to watch him dive. Plus, we got to see some really beautiful Eagle Rays, including one who just hung around with us for most of a dive! Overall, an incredible experience that made me want to spearfish again! If you want to do something a little different on your trip to Playa, this is your company!…

What a great experience. Went with a large group of 10 people. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They have a wealth of knowledge and explain everything very thoroughly. Easy to talk to and easy to work with. I would recommend this trip to anyone who is interested.

We had an awesome time spearfishing. The crew is extremely knowledgeable, safe and funny! They took us to some awesome spots. Aside from seeing many beautiful fish, we also saw a massive Eagle Ray and Sea Turtle that swam with us. Truly an unforgettable experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THIS IF YOU ARE IN PLAYA!!!!!! - Dan & The RedShelf Crew…
