Amazing experience with this dive shop attached to Blue Apple Resort on Terra Bomba. Guides were lovely, transport smooth, and bottom times averaged 50+ minutes.

We took a snorkeling trip one day and a diving trip another day. Picked up at la puerta 1, Muelle de la Bodeguita in Cartagena by Jose. 20 minutes by boat to Isla Tierra Bomba to be outfitted and introduced to our dive master Lea. Day 1 Snorkeling: was fine. I prefer diving. This was to take the opportunity to get my 14 yo into the water. Lea was super friendly and easy-going. Very encouraging and attentive to my daughter who had some reservations. I credit Lea that my daughter really enjoyed herself. Day 2 Diving: again Lea was our dive master. I really enjoyed her vibe. Relaxed, open, enthusiastic. The diving was superb. First dive was on a wreck site with museum sculptures and several very large wrecks at 40 ft. Second dive was at a beautiful reef at 40 ft. with some coral, lots of colorful sponges, and lots of fish variety - including seahorse and ray. After both days we enjoyed a good lunch at the Blue Apple resort before transport back to Cartagena. Exceptional experience.…

This experience was excellent!! The teacher was so calm with me, I was very nervous, but I made it 30 ft down because they are calming and patient with me. They let me do snorkeling as well! Great place to learn scuba diving and snorkeling plus looking at beautiful underwater views! Thank you to the whole team.…

Fantastic 2 dives, on all points! To resume we prefer small, personalized, and safe operations and it was exactly that! First Jota could accommodate us just the day before, as we'd been diving with a different company a couple of days before but wanted a shorter boat trip than to Isla Rosario, and his proposed dive in Isla de Baru was exactly what we wanted. He listened to our experiences and desires and combined with the conditions Jota offered to dive on some wrecks, Underwater Museum, and then on beautiful sand plus coral reef. We felt super safe all along, following all PADI's procedures, he was really active in finding and showing us wildlife, lots of it! Lots of new sightings! Equipment in great condition, friendly team, the post-dive in Blue apple was very welcomed, it's a beautiful place. We will definitely come back!…

My friends and I had an amazing day diving and snorkeling with Paraiso. The reefs they took us to were gorgeous and the dive masters made me feel very safe. I definitely would recommend diving with them to anyone visiting Cartagena!
