Dove 6 dives with Scuba Playa, my boyfriend dove 7 dives as he was pursuing his advanced open water certification. Scuba Playa is a high class operation, with a very nice shop just off the main street in Playa Del Carmen, next to Starbucks. They have a small selection of dive gear for sale, but have a large selection of... more

We have been using Scuba Playa Dive Shop for at least 5 years and have always been very satisfied with their service and quality of their boats and equipment. The location is less than half a block from the ocean and right beside a Starbucks. They really know the dive sites and take you to the best ones according to... more

About me: been diving for approx. 9 years - but no more than once per year average. Open Water cert, fairly okay skill and experience level - wanted to improve and develop. About them: PERFECT for me!! After our six dives with Scuba Playa, both my friend's and my skill level went from average to excellent. In fact, when we... more

I have never dived before so when I came here, I was very nervous about learning to dive and getting my certification. Gavin is an experienced diver and this is where he received his certification and he was very happy with it so that is why we chose this shop for mine. Klaus and Luis were great from the start.... more

Klaus and Luis at Playa Scuba Dive Center went out of their way to ensure I had a great time diving with them. During our surface interval we visited the site with Bull Sharks where I was allowed to snorkle down to take a look. When I had to change my dive plans, Klaus arranged for me to get a... more

We had a great experience with Scuba Playa. We did several dives over a week. The divemasters and staff are very knowledgable and friendly - especially Sophia, Hector, and John. Our group had a lot of diving different experience levels and they were great with everyone. I highly recommend the shark dive for experienced divers. The divemasters move pretty slowly... more

The guys at Scuba Playa were great. Mario, Jalel and Eric were all easy to deal with, knowledgeable, and fun. The dive centre was well set up and in a great, central location; our dive group was nice and small (four of us, plus Eric); the boat was nice, big and well-manned; the equipment was all in good shape; Eric... more

I have done several dives with Scuba Playa in the past few years and I have to say that they do a great job: good dive shop with an excellent location. The divemasters are very knowledgeable of the area and look after their divers. Boats are a good size and their crews have always been spot on. My only caution... more

My wife and I completed our open water referral certification with this dive shop and dove with them a total of 8 times. This dive shop was excellent, clean, friendly, and maintained small dive groups. The dive shop employees really make you feel at home. They learned and remembered our first names right away, and every time we entered the... more

This was our email back to Scuba Playa on our return from our two week holiday in Sept 08. We did 26 dives with them in total, which gave us more than just an idea about what they were like to dive with, we are experienced divers and we could not fault them for organising our dives and guiding us,... more
