My daughter booked a stay for us in Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica, and as a scuba diver, I feel no vacation is complete without exploring the underwater world in that location, providing the waters are clear and warm. Sirenas was a perfect solution for a day’s outing on the water. We enjoyed a private I went scuba diving with the dive master who served as an underwater guide pointing out indigenous marine life I might have missed. Meanwhile, the dive instructor snorkeled with my daughter and two grandchildren, one of whom is not a skilled swimmer. He ensured their safety so I didn’t have to worry about them as I enjoyed my scuba dive. They picked us up in the morning at a nearby beach, provided snacks between dives and took us to a private island to enjoy lunch and let the kids splash around the beach. It was a wonderful , customized experience. I highly recommend Sirenas for a personalized, customized scuba or snorkeling adventure in Costa Rica.

Spent a week in Playa Hermosa and did 4 days of great scuba and surf trips with Sirenas. I was the only guest on one day of diving and the surf day and there was only one additional guest on the other two days of diving. Scott was upfront about my option to have a private outing all 4 days but I opted in to have an additional experienced diver join. Scott made sure our skill levels (and air consumption) were comparable. Scott is a real pleasure to dive with, and was very accommodating. The boat was able to pick me up from the beach in front of my hotel. All the dives were in interesting locations, and Scott was able to help identify the highlights of the sea life. The day we went to the Bat Islands, Roy filled in for Scott and was also a great dive guide. The surface intervals were spent on isolated beaches hanging out or exploring the beach, or touring the coastline from the boat. The surf day was also fun, getting to check out Ollie's and Witch's Rock. The boat captain Santos was also very helpful and worked hard to ensure everything was prepared for the day. The operation felt very smooth and safe. I would certainly dive with them again!

10/10 This is such an amazing team to dive with. The intimate experience, skill, knowledge they offer is extraordinary. Prior to diving we met with Scott to review our wishes & needs. At this time he offered to take our equipment to ensure it was checked prior to our first dive and subsequently before & after each day of diving. It was wonderful to have someone care for all the gear, including wetsuits. We literally just had to show up, everything else was looked after by Scott & Crew.
We visited Costa Rica Nov25-Dec 6th and dove for five days. The crew took us to many memorable dive sites near Playa Coco, and Catalina Islands including Monkey Rock, Elephant, Punta Gorda, Buenas Tardes, Tortuga etc.
The fish were plentiful, and we saw Rays,Sharks,Eels, Turtles, Dolphin, Starfish, Puffer, Angel, Parrot, Golby, Blenny, Wrasse,Tuna, Jack, Butterfly, Rock, Nudibranch, Conch, +++++.
For me this was a real special trip. I had a bad experience in Maui, I was one dive away from completing my open water certification and almost gave up diving. My husband even admitted he was concerned I would not continue to dive. I took lessons back in Winnipeg and with the skill, and patience of Scott & Roy I was able to get certified as an open water diver. With the help of these amazing individuals, the support of my husband, encouragement of our friends that accompanied us on this trip I learned to love the sport!
Speaking from experience I can’t emphasize enough how important the crew you hire is to make you feel secure, safe, teach & review the skills to ensure you have mastered & understood what is required to have a fun & safe dive.
Scott & Roy shared leading the dives, being fairly new to the sport I naturally stayed close to Roy. He had the biggest knife :)
While diving captain Santos watched for bubbles and the boat was easily accessible as soon as we surfaced. During our dive intervals Santos navigated the waters like a pro and took us to many amazing beaches. We will be back! Thank you for making this a great experience for us all. Pura Vida!

We dove with Sirenas in August 2021. Scott was our dive master and he was awesome to dive with. He prioritized safety first which was important to us. We took our small kids along with us and his crew
graciously helped swim/ snorkel with them while we took turns diving. He also packed lots of snacks for us to eat in between dives. You can tell he is a very experienced diver who really cares about the ecology of the area. He was also thoughtful about which dive locations would work the best for us.

While Sirenas is not the cheapest, we were very happy with the quality of the experience. We even had a bonus of seeing some cheeky monkeys on our shore interval. We would gladly dive with them again when in Costa Rica.

We had a great experience with Scott and the Sirenas team over the Christmas holidays!

Our group had a variety of experience levels from Open Water (~10 dives) to Dive Master. Scott and his team did a phenomenal job making sure that everyone felt safe, comfortable, and got the most out of their dive experience. Not to mention, they took us to some amazing secluded beaches during the surface intervals.

If you are going to Costa Rica and want to ensure you are diving with a professional who prioritizes safety, Scott is your guy. He is also incredibly quick to respond to emails, which makes planning easy.

First off, the staff is amazing, Scott is extremely personable and knowledgable, he ensures that we were all feeling safe and informed. Roy is more on the quiet side yet he came out of his shell by the end of the trip, and was lovely to dive with, he gave a very clear briefing before the dive and I appreciated that a lot. Cap'n Santos was very skilled, clean entry in and out of the boat from dives/snorkels and even found us a pod of dolphins. I was a bit of a nervous diver at first (hadn't dove in 6 odd years) but Scott and Roy assured me enough that by the end of it I felt quite confident under the water. My mother was an anxious snorkeler, almost ended up getting out of the water right away, but Scott literally swam with her, with his arm around her the entire time.
Honestly, the only down fall was the visibility. There was a red tide during our stay, and even though they said it was quite a clear day, I was a little unimpressed with the visibility in the Costa Rica waters. We hoped to see manta rays on this trip and we weren't so lucky. However we did see a sea turtle and a white tip reef shark, as well as a pod of dolphins while we were boating. We saw lots of eels, stingrays, starfish and various fish.
10/10 for Scott and the team, they are truly amazing, putting in so much effort to ensure that our experience was enjoyable. They even took us on a boat tour along the shore to finish off our dive.
7/10 for the diving/snorkelling experience, just based on the bad vis and few things we saw. BUT safety, experience, and everything else was perfect.

Lucky to have found Sirenas online. We were looking for instructors to help us get our Advanced Open Water certification and we found great instructors with the right amount of knowledge and patience. Scott, Roy and our Capitano Santos were there to help get us in the water. First class operation with our gear cleaned and sanitized and remarkably dried daily. We showed up at the boat for 4 days so far with one dive left to the Catalina’s. This is the first time I have ever written a review and that is because these guys guys have gone above and beyond the call of duty. Safety first and we felt safe at every moment.

On the trip all our goals were met and we got 3 people certified to Advanced and one person got their Open Water dives completed.

Many many thanks we will be back!

Pura Vida!

If you are looking for a private charter or small group dive, Sirenas is the absolute best. We spent incredible 2 days with Scott, Roy and Santos.

Our group had one open water certified diver, and one diver who was completing their open water certification. Scott was the best instructor I could have asked for - incredibly patient and understanding. I was anxious to start and he let me take everything at my own pace. His enthusiasm was contagious, he made the experience fun from start to finish. While I finished my certification, my partner was able to explore and enjoy “real” dives with Roy, who was able to point out tons of marine life and multiple shark sightings.

Captain Santos was always nearby when we would surface, he really is the best. In between dives there were plenty of snacks - pineapple, cookies, chips, and water in personalized reusable mugs. Captain Santos took us to 2 amazing beaches during our surface intervals, where we could hike, explore and snorkel! Felt like a bonus excursion in the middle of our dive day.

I cannot recommend Sirenas & Scott enough!

We only went snorkeling, but we got to experience so much. We all got to catch a fish, which was very exciting.Santos the captain was very efficient and helpful. Scott was amazing, bubbling with excitement and energy and knowledge. He embraces the Costa Rican lifestyle and cherishes the protection of the animals sealife and beach. He picks up garbage on land and ocean 💓 he offered to pick us up from our hotel because our hotel was close to his house and he drove us to the boat no charge. He was professional, no drinking alcohol before diving or snorkeling 🙏. We saw some amazing fish and sea urchins and dolphins, and devil rays jumping, Omgosh a poisonous yellow belly sea snake 🐍 Eeks a green turtle.
All equipment was clean and sized to fit. I highly recommend this tour. 👍

I dove with Bobbie Jo at the end of January. We got incredibly lucky with the weather and were able to do a day at the Bat Islands (which for that time of year is not typical). This honestly was one of the most incredible days diving I have ever experienced and will be tough to top - only one boat out there, 3 divers, diving with huge mantas, sharks, enormous schools of fish, rays jumping. Just wow.

We were able to get in 3 days of 3 tank dives - one day local, one at the Bats and one at Catalinas which was great for variety. I enjoyed the local dives as well.

Bobbie Jo keeps the groups small which is always a plus. One day when there were more of us, Roy came as well. Both are very knowledgeable, experienced, friendly, safe diver masters and we had a blast.

Dani and Jose are great captain and crew - professional, friendly, safe. Sirenas has a well run operation.

As always, you get what you pay for. Diving in Coco in general was more expensive than other places, but there are many factors going into that. And I am always willing to pay more for a smaller group and a more special experience.

Thank you for a wonderful trip! Cannot wait to return!
