Cabo Adventures open water diver certification - I got certified here 2 years ago and thought enough of my instructor that I just brought my 16 year old son down here. He got certified today. Thank you so much Armondo Perea! You are knowledgeable, thorough and I will continue to put my trust in you. 100% recommend scuba certification through you and Cabo Adventures.

PADI Open Water Cert with Armando and Brandon - Amazing experience overall, started day 1 in a small pool and the next day we were in the ocean. Armando and Brandon were 10/10 instructors, made it very easy to learn and were great guides when we went out into the ocean. They really instilled confidence, made the whole course enjoyable and never once felt stressed. We saw sharks, rays, lots of fish and a shipwreck.

Get certified here!! - This was my first diving experience ever and it couldn’t have been better! Brandon and Armando are fantastic instructors, and the training and the knowledge they provided was outstanding. The first day of the course was in a pool, and I felt confident with going to dive sites in the ocean on the following days. The dive sites were beautiful and was lucky to see the marine life we did - lots of fish, rays, even a shark! The whole crew on the boat was also great with helping out with gear set up and lots of fun to be with. Such a fun experience! The highlight of my time in Cabo. Would recommend to anyone thinking about getting certified!

Amazing certification experience with Cabo Adventures! - We had a great experience pursuing our PADI certification at Cabo Adventures! Right from the start the communication and planning process was very clear and prompt. Armando and Brandon were excellent teachers, mentors, and guides to the world of scuba, and we felt privileged to study under their leadership. We had one confined water dive and two open water and everything was smooth and well organized. During our dives, in addition to completing the training, we saw a ton of fish, explored a shipwreck and swam to some great reefs. A truly amazing experience that we will carry forward for a lifetime. In fact, we were so impressed with Cabo Adventures, that we booked a snorkel trip with another friend through the company. Highly recommend this company for your adventures in Cabo!

WOW! That’s says it all! - What an amazing time!!! We had zero experience before starting this course. The training was outstanding and our nerves faded fast. We left feeling very confident and are ready for the next dive. The entire dive staff at Cabo Adventures is top notch. Armando is an amazing instructor. We had so much fun. Thank you! We can’t wait to return.

Armando is such a professional! - I had the best experience you could want. Armando was a great instructor and helped me through the whole process, I couldn't have asked for anything else. Also cannot forgot Camilla who took me on one of my dives, I felt very safe being underwater with her!

Experience 10/10, HIGHLY recommended! - I decided to take my Padi Open Water Diver course with Cabo Adventures because I had received good comments from local people and the price seemed excellent. Furthermore, the pelican stone is the perfect setting for this adventure. It's November and the water was warm and with incredible visibility. I felt very accompanied by the staff, safe and calm. Armando guided me through the entire process, always making sure I understood the instructions and inspiring confidence in myself and them during the dives. The diving equipment is in very good condition and the boat is super comfortable. I thank everyone for their good energy and support, especially Armando, Brandon, Paty, Arturo and Nelson.

Amazing Diving Experience! - I did my Advanced Open Water Certification with Cabo Adventures and I have nothing but great things to say about the company and the instructors! Armando was very accommodating with the schedule. Jorge is a great instructor and extremely knowledgeable. I also did the Cabo Pulmo dive trip and that was such an amazing experience. Ricardo is a fantastic dive guide and very knowledgeable of the area. Gabriel is a fantastic driver that got us to and from the dive site safely and expeditiously! I highly recommend going with them on your next dive trip!

Amazing and gentle first time - I think his name was Brandon (either way, all were amazing) but my guide was TOP notch Tenessean. I was feeling claustrophobic and he guided me down safely after a quick breathing moment and a mask adjustment. Water was super chilly but his kindness and professionalism warmed my heart and I was able to relax and have fun. Pictures show me constantly holding my nose and looking like a deer caught in headlights, but don't let it fool you, I had fun. I will be back when it is a lot warmer. Thank you to Jesus, Mago, Arturo, Alf and Brandon!
