Perfect open-water diving course - I did the open-water diving course there. Super nice dive center, I felt very comfortable and Javi was a super instructor. It was wonderful, would go back there immediately! The dive sites were great, saw sharks and turtles and much more.

Grateful - Having done the Open and doing the Advanced, I am having the opportunity to meet and share with a large part of the pocna staff. The girls in the office are beautiful: Bren, Luchi, Diane, Eve, super loving and available; Manlio attentive and friendly. Fede the instructor of my Open, predisposed to teach, enthusiastic and good-natured (important for learning and building confidence). Javi instructor from the beginning of my Advanced, super respectful, correct and cautious. Dami, the photographer, takes wonderful photos! Really highly recommended! @damianalmua Mati's technique and enthusiasm make one feel more confident and fun. Ivan super nice and willing. Grateful for the experience and learning!

I got open water certified🌊 - Getting my Open Water license with Pocna was one of the best decisions I could make. My instructor was Luna and the treatment was excellent, very professional as well as personalized. I learned everything I needed to feel capable of diving in open water. All the school staff were very attentive, I must also highlight that there are many cool girls working here which as a female traveler gave me confidence and I felt very safe at all times. The boat captains are very humble and friendly local people, which makes the experience even more rewarding. The equipment is quality. And on the boat the staff provides fruits and water. In my case I did not hire this service but you also have the option of hiring a professional photographer in case you want to document the experience.

Exceptional 5* Star Dive Center - We were referred to Ponca dive center by a friend. We had already completed our elearning/exam and pool training back home. Our 2 day open water certification with our awesome 🤙🏾 dive instructor “Fede”, was exceptional. Fede was calm, composed, and kind. With his vast knowledge, he made sure to take the to time to answer all of our questions. When we went out to the different dive sites,the synergy between the Pocna dive center teammates was very obvious. This made the experience feel very comfortable and secure. We would without a doubt, fully recommend this well organized, well structured, and friendly dive center. Shout out again to “Fede”! 🤙🏽👌🏽 ¡Muchas Gracias! Sharonita & Martino

There for you every step of the way! - 10/10. From the instructors, the staff, the facilities, the equipment, the boat captains and the dives... you really can't get any better. EVERYONE is friendly, accommodating, safe and attentive. I had never been diving before. After the open water course, I feel comfortable underwater and prepared for troubleshooting and safety issues. I even went on a night dive at the end of the week which was another level of intensity, but probably my most favorite experience. Thank you to Denni, Fede, Tito, Genesis and the whole PocNa crew. I'll be back.

Incredible on every aspect - I didn't expect to spend so much of my time on the island with the pocna dive center, but every moment was so fun that I kept coming back to book more dives I had the opportunity to do my PADI Open water certification with Fede to start off the week. jean amazing instructor: very knowledgeable, patient and was reassuring throughout the process, helping me build my confidence as a diver. Simply THE BEST! I enjoyed my 4 training dives with the other instructors as well (Denni, Luna, Nina), who all made sure that everyone was having a good time on the boat (also shoutout to the capitains)! The staff at the dive center is super friendly and accommodating and will work hard to find you last minute spots on dives, making the whole dive experience so thrilling. Also did some snorkeling with Lalo, super nice and a great snorkeling guide that knows very well the snorkel spots. I ended up doing a night dive which was amazing! Tyto knows a lot about marine wildlife, which is very useful, especially on night dives! All in all, if youre looking for a good dive shop on Isla Mujeres, pocna is the go-to. And for an open water certification, Fede is the hypest! Loved every moment, so thank you all !!!!
