From the get go I knew I had made the right choice to use ME Dive Centre to complete Advanced Open Water Diver. There are so many Dive Centres in Playa Del Carmen to choose from but after reading many reviews on the internet ME Dive Centre had what I believed to me the most genuine reviews - and I was correct. I made contact with them 8 months before my trip to Mexico and was put in touch with Ana, we had many conversations over the 8 months about location of the dive, what we would do, what’s skills were covered etc etc (you don’t normally get this level of service so I was super impressed) l. Ana was my instructor and she was super knowledgable, friendly, welcoming, patient and most of all fun to spend time with. She ensured that I knew what skills we would be doing on which days and we had an informative dive brief before each dive which made me feel super comfortable. Ana knew all the 6 dive sites like the back of her hand so she knew where to stop to do the skills and where to enjoy the sites in between skills.! I was able to use Nitrox (I am qualified for Nitrox) on what ever dives I wanted, at a small additional cost (like any dive centre charges) which was great to have that option. The dive shop had a huge selection of products to browse if you wanted to but there was absolutely no hard sell to buy anything which I loved as I didn’t feel pressured into buying anything if I didn’t want to, however, there is a huge choice of products so defiantly check the shop out even if your not booked in to dive. Everything was well planned from start to finish and there was always a plan B if the weather was not favourable, however, I was super luckily and have 3 glorious days diving! The Dive Centre is a 2 minute walk off 5th Ave towards the top end of 5th Ave, so super easy and safe to walk to. 5** for Ana and 5** for ME Dive Centre! I will defiantly dive with them again and I have now found my dive centre for Mexico! I can 100% recommend you give them a shot when your looking for a trustworthy dive centre in Playa Del Carmen.

Best shop in playa, I bought a dive package and it was super personalized. They even rented me a plate/wing since I prefer to dive that way instead of a bc. This is def a great tech shop as well, they are an exclusive supplier for Apeks down there. Ana is an awesome guide, shes really an expert on the area especially the cenotes since she dives the caves.

I went diving with Me Dive about a month ago, specifically with Ale and Eduardo, and it was amazing! They were very considerate, while always prioritizing in safety! Really nice folks and make the diving spectacular (as well as Rebecca, who didn't make it that time). I'd like to go back again with them and I highly recommend Me Dive!

I was fortunate enough to have received a personal recommendation from a long time friend of the operations manager of ME Dive Center. Alvaro Sepulvada (aka Sepul) is simply an awesome person who also happens to be a fantastic dive center ops manager, instructor, dive master, and of course diver. He truly loves that he has the privilege of scuba diving almost every day in a myriad of amazing cenotes and areas of the Caribbean sea around the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico. I will forever more dive with Sepul every chance I get when in the Playa del Carmen region.
Thank you Sepul for our awesome dives in the Pit, at Barbie, and into the Bat Cave at Dos Ojos. I only wish that it would have worked out for us to get in several more dives together this past week. Next time mi amigo!!!

We found this shop just by walking by we had tried a few dive shops but as soon as we entered this one it felt very relaxed, warm and so helpful.
They organised Cozumel trip for me with the legendary Sergio,two divers on one boat.
Then today the dive leader Sepul took us to too fantastic caves at Los Ojos on his day off! Very experienced guide who is really into you having a good time but at the same time is safe calm and very informative.
Dont go anywhere else, i have dived all over the world and these guys have got the balance perfect.
Every member of the staff deserves praise for creating a great enviroment.

After a week of diving, it was genuinely sad to say farewell to Sepul and his crew. The attention, the care and the diving were just amazing. A and S: you kids are great and enjoy the world ahead of you but keep listening to the "Guru", he does know best :)
Ale, congrats on what you built and, Sepul, thank you so much. You are the best and I would follow you on any dive! You are a good man and you make the world a better place for all of us.

I wholeheartedly recommend ME Dive Center for anyone looking for a fun time diving the Riviera Maya, whether diving the denotes or reefs! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and will keep you safe while having a great time. Sepul is a wonderful instructor and guide for the cenotes and you will thoroughly enjoy diving with him and the rest of the staff. I can not say enough about this shop. Try them out and you will see first hand how much fun diving with them can be!!

It's the best Dive center in Playa del Carmen! Crew is totally Professional and qualified to offer support to all customers. Reefs dive or cenotes Dive is better with Me Dive.

Excellent Cenote diving with Sepul, very knowledgeable instructor with lots of patience,did a two day cenote, had to change plans because The Pit was closed, took us to Dream gate, it was just a spectacular, lots of stalactites and breathtaking caves. When my BC was forgotten at Manatee cenote, he went back to get it and made it on time with the rest of the group. Definitely will dive again with them, very personalized service, made us feel like family having a good time, lots of jokes and friendly atmosphere. Lunch on second day needs improvement.

Of course Playa del Carmen is a beautiful place to begin our adventure. Sepul, the Dive Master, orchestrated a wonderful experience for our group of six. Our skill and experience levels were all over the scale but he managed to keep all of us on task. He and his staff, including Susana, were gracious hosts with constant attention to details. His confidence and gentle demeanor relieved my fears. We are looking forward to returning for more diving adventures very soon.

He buceado antes pero no tengo certificado ¿es necesario el certificado?
Written September 3, 2016
quieres realizar buceos más aventurados y desagiantes, como en grietas, cenotes, barcos hundidos y nocturno? recomiendo estudies un poco, aprenderás a cuidarte y disfrutar conociendo varias medidas ee seguridad para bucear minimizando riesgos.
Personalmente creo que si deberias certificar.
