Overview

We offer affordable 1:1 discover scuba experiences on shared boats for a truly personalized experience. You will NOT be in large groups with divers who may work at a different pace. Your instructor will be able to attend to you exclusively and will not have their hands too full to find all the amazing aquatic life!

We dive at a local reef 5 minutes by boat. However, if it´s too crowded on this popular site, we are one of the few dive centers that have actually mapped out another secret shallow water area which is 99% almost always exclusive to us.

This activity is for one dive only. However, we will always put extra tanks on the boat in case you want to do a second dive. It´s addictive! So be prepared to want to go again and again.

Although our instructors are not permitted to take photos because your safety comes first, we offer an affordable private photographer to go with you and take truly personalized photos. Just message us separately if you want to book this service.

What To Expect

You'll meet your instructor at the dive center in plenty of time to get suited up and ready. At the boat you'll learn some basic concepts of diving and have a detailed equipment orientation. After practicing skills in shallow water, you're ready to explore! You'll be allowed to dive as deep as you are comfortable to a maximum of 12m/ 40ft. If you prefer to stay the depth of a swimming pool and play with the pufferfish, that's absolutely fine!

This is a unique affordable, private experience on a shared boat with a private expert instructor that is dedicated to you. Your instructor will have the time to concentrate on your enjoyment while maintaining our 100% safety record - as well as having better opportunities to find an ABUNDANCE of interesting marine life that lives here in Cabo! We believe small groups with close supervision is the best way to reduce human impact on the reef and truly enjoy the closest wildlife encounters!

Please note: you will be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire to check you are medically fit to dive. If you have high blood pressure, asthma or recent surgeries you would require a Dr to sign off beforehand.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: How soon can I fly in an airplane after Scuba diving?

A: Participants in the Private Beginner Scuba Diving Experience in Cabo San Lucas cannot fly in an airplane within 24 hours of their dive. The main concern with scuba diving and flying is decompression sickness (DCS). Your body needs adequate time during an ascent to off-gas excess nitrogen, or you can form bubbles in your bloodstream, possibly leading to DCS. Read more Jun 2024
