dive with julio — Local services in Isla Cozumel

If you’re new or have never been SCUBA diving before, this review is for you. Julio is the man you want!

My fiancée and I had the most incredible experience diving with Julio. Despite being first-time divers, Julio’s expertise and warmth immediately put us at ease. His professionalism and friendliness made learning the ropes a breeze. From explaining diving fundamentals to handling equipment with precision, Julio ensured our safety and enjoyment throughout. Experienced divers on the boat expressed that they were impressed with Julio’s diving introduction to us!

And let me assure you, their equipment is top-notch. Even when a minor issue arose—my fiancée’s inhalation valve got stuck open causing constant airflow while underwater—we were reassured by Julio’s prompt response and the safety protocols in place. His calm demeanor and quick action resolved the situation seamlessly. He had equipped us with troubleshooting skills from the start, which he skillfully employed underwater. His attentiveness and clear communication during this moment of slight anxiety underscored his exceptional teaching and leadership.

And the breathtaking underwater views he guided us through left us in awe.

Not to mention, the entire crew on the boat was fantastic—making the experience all the more enjoyable. We will be planning another vacation in the future, and diving with Julio is non-negotiable....

We had never scuba dived before. The house we are staying has a visitor journal filled with several people's comments about how fantastic it was to scuba dive with Julio.

Having been our first time, I am so impressed with the personal attention given to us by Julio as opposed to other places that would be a class of many. The beginner instructions were communicated clearly and he made sure each important point was explained, understood, and practiced to ensure we demonstrated the tasks that ensure safety and allow for a confident experience.

Julio’s love of diving made us feel comfortable and excited to explore. He took us to some of his favorite places where we saw eagle rays, large eel with his head out of his home, lobsters in a chase, an abundance of colorful fish, and a beautiful underwater world that could not be replicated by our simple love of snorkel.

Because of our experience with Julio, we are planning to get scuba certified as soon as possible and return as often as possible to enjoy this under water paradise...

My family and I went snorkeling with Julio and his team, and he was by far the best instructor I've ever had out on the water. I've been on many snorkel trips and he moves to number 1. He knows the best places to go while giving clear instructions for our safety as well as the fish and reef's safety. He's very professional, knowledgeable, personable, friendly and came highly recommended to us. We will be going back to Julio after we get certified for diving because I'm sure he's the best at that. He's been diving for 20 years and very experienced. Thank you Julio and we will...
