Best Dive experience hands down - Walked into Flying Fish dive shop on a whim and recommendations from MexiKan tours. Jaime was just closing up his shop when I walked over to him. Explained I was only in town for the rest of the day and flying back home the next afternoon. He immediately went into action, made a few phone calls and pulled an incredibly talented and knowledgeable diver (on his day off) in to take me on a couple dives through the cenotes. I immediately knew I was in the right spot. While waiting for Mario (dive Guide) Jaime and I talked about diving and histories from where he is to where he started. Offered me a sandwich while I waited and really took an interest in what I was looking for, so I got the best experience. As soon as Mario walked in we packed up and away we went. Mario is a funny guy and the smartest dive guide I have ever had the privilege to dive with and I have been diving for a very long time. We spoke about different dives sites around the Caribbean and abroad. Mario gave me lessons on the rock formations underwater and how the cenotes were formed along with helpful dive tips before during and after our dives. Since I was a diving on a whim, we didn't get to the dive site until a little later. That was the luckiest thing...the sun was coming through the cenote openings just at the right time to see the most picturesque blues and greens. And there was little traffic in the water which really made the experience that much better. Mario and I spoke as we moved from his truck to the water and made a point to introduce me to multiple local divers. You can tell he is well respected within the dive community. Additionally, it needs to be pointed out that this local dive community is the friendliest I have ever seen.
While I didn't get pictures from the dives, I can say these were the best dives I have been on. Call Flying Fish, take their dives and be sure to ask for Mario. I rarely write reviews, but this one had to be made.

Dives in the cenotes - Beautiful spot with a good reception from the first day at the store.
Take 3 dives during the day (with pit cenote), just amazing.
Good local colation with Mario, the Guide, very friendly and professional who tells all the local history of the surrounding places and notes.
So, did 2 more dives the next day, angelita and casa, hesitated at first for my budget, well, I did well to launch, 2 more different dives, all equally amazing and beautiful.
Very good experiences with flying fish tulum, both human and professional.

Best Cenote Trip - This was the best of all cenote trips we did.! Jamie was a fantastic guide and gave us a unforgettable experience.
We could snorkel through stalactites, saw bats, the cool clear water was divine and the nature around was just amazing.

Fabulous cavern dive with Mario - Had a fabulous experience with flying fish tulum on 2 cavern dives in cenotes. Our dive master, Mario, was incredible ensuring our safety and that we were comfortable every step of the way. He was also such a pleasure to spend the day with, catering to our specific needs! Would highly recommend booking a dive!

Great experience - Had a great experience with Jamie and Mario. Did the Discover dive with some friends who were new to diving, then did the Dos Ojos dive the next day. The dive shop is well-run, organized, and easy-going. Our guide, Mario, was very knowledgable, a patient teacher, and a fun guide. Both dives were incredible, especially the cavern diving in Dos Ojos. Would definitely recommend!

Great dive shop - We did two cenote dives with Flying Fish. They are professional, organized and have excellent equipment. Our guide, Mario, was very knowledgeable, safe and a great, fun guide. He also taught us a lot about Mayan culture. El Pit is unlike any other dive by going through the fresh/salt water line and then through the fog like hydrosulphide layer. Barbie was also amazing going deep into a cavern with so many cave features. We had a nice lunch between dives. Their fees include 5 mm dive suits and booties as well as park fees making it a lot easier. We highly recommend Flying Fish.
