With over 28 years experience we can offer the best in everything from snorkeling and recreational diving to advanced levels of instructor training. Whether its a bubblemakers course for the kids, a refresher course, Open Water Diver or Advanced Open Water or Cave and Cavern courses, the Original Akumal Dive Shop will be glad to have you and your family as our students. In the Akumal area we have many beautiful underwater marvels . Most of our reefs are located less than 5 minutes by boat from our dive shop. In addition to our ocean dive sites, we have access to several world famous “cenotes” (underground rivers) with spectacular caves and caverns that are very safe to dive in with our specially trained guides. Every day we have three ocean dives at 9:30, 11:30 and 2:30 and cenote dives can also be arranged daily. At the end of every dive we come back to the dive shop to spend our surface intervals on shore.
