This was nice because you got semi private service out to an awesome reef, where you snorkel for a little over an hour. It was only $45 which was a deal compared to other competitors. My only complaint was the water was so choppy that three of us got terribly sea sick. The guide told us the waves were normal... More

I initially chose Manta Divers mainly for the opportunity to take the PADI Cavern Diving Speciality Course, but it turned out to be the best part of my vacation. The staff were great - Mimi worked with me to organize the course weeks before I arrived so I could start the day after my plane landed. They also offered to... More

My dad and I got all of our class and pool time out of the way in Missouri and went to Cancun to complete the open water dives. As with many travelers, it can be a bit overwhelming trying to choose a dive shop with a good reputation who won't rip you off. I will be the first to say... More

I went Solo on a Cenote diving experience as a warm up to cave diving the next day. Lief was an excellent guide who provided an informative and entertaining dive briefing which resulted in an enjoyable time for all. You hear a great deal about adaptive diving, and Lief provided the support needed to make everyone's experience a positive one.... More

We paid for a snorkel trip to two spots, but the seas and current were so rough we were begging to head back after only half the time. Small boat, ROUGH ride out, no safety briefing, Only two visible life vests for 7 people...and to top it off, visibility was awful - hardly saw any fish! They had no business... More

Nancy, hi my name is Mimi and I one of the owners. We generally don't go out at all on rough condition days with snorkelers, am not quite sure what day you went with us. Unfortunately we do not control the weather conditions, however if the day and seas are rough, we make the strong recommendation to our customers not... More

Our oldest son(13) and my husband took the beginner diver course and 2 tank shallow dives...my son is hooked! He was up close with sea turtles, puffer fish, starfish and more! Mimi, your help with planning and helping to arrange for the rest of the family to snorkel was appreciated! Great staff great experience! More

The purpose of my diving in Cancun was to allow my two children 14 & 11 to become certified. In spite of a three hour pool course before we arrived (and having loved it), the fact that my daughter could see the ocean from the training pool took all of the fun out of it - and she never did... More

We did the dive to Cenote Chac-Mool. It was an amazing experience that every diver should experience. Our dive master Lief was awesome and prepared us well for this unique dive. The only problem was at the end we were offered a DVD of the dive. We were very excited about watching our dive and addition photos of these amazing... More

Joyce we really enjoyed diving with you both as well. Unfortuntely the DVD you purchased wat not from Manta Divers, it was actually from the dive site where you dove. They sell their own DVD's and we do not have any control over the quality of what they produce and sell. Perhaps if you return to Cancun in the future,... More

We just spent a week diving with Manta. This is a top notch outfit. Great to work with and flexible if you want to change your schedule. Everything is well coordinated via email or phone before your visit. We have been diving all over the world, but this cenote diving experience was unbelieveable! They pick you up at your hotel....

My wife and I completed our Open Water Certification with Manta Divers last week in Cancun and Cozumel. It was a great experience from start to finish; Alex took very good care of us, even staying long into the evening while we wrote our written test at the end of the third day. I would recommend them, without hesitation, for... More
