5Amazing!
This was an awesome time! Most of the group went snorkeling with Alex and I had the pleasure to scuba dive with Mario. Both were super helpful and very knowledgeable about the local marine life. If you're in Acapulco, highly recommend them! The group had a whale of a good time! 😉
5First Time Diving, Great Experience!
This was my first time ever scuba diving. Mario and his team did a great job from my pick up, dive and drop off. Alex, my scuba instructor was AAA! Alex showed me the basics, kept me calm, next thing I know i was enjoying the drive! A must do.
5The best experience according with my daughter!
We did the two-tank scuba diving for beginners with my 10-year-old daughter, and it was absolutely amazing! According to her, it was the best experience of our whole trip to Acapulco. The instructor and crew were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the day. During the first dive, the instructor showed so much patience with my daughter, encouraging her every step of the way and giving her clear feedback so she could feel safe and truly enjoy the experience. The whole team was very accommodating to our requests, which made everything smooth and stress-free. We wrapped up the day with some snorkeling around La Roqueta Island, which was the cherry on top of an already unforgettable adventure. We’ll definitely be coming back to do this experience again on our next trip to Acapulco. Highly recommended!
5Great
It was really great if you're thinking of doing it just do it very fun and worth it I am hooked now.
5Best scuba diving experience!
This is my best scuba diving experience so far!! Mario is very knowledgeable and really took the time to explain everything. We also got spent a lot time underwater (2 dives and 2 hrs total) which you don’t get that very often. He also picked great location for scuba. I got to see the most marine life out of all the scuba trips I’ve done. I would highly recommend SDA to anyone who’s interested in doing scuba diving in Acapulco!
5Unique experience
The experience that they offer is very good (price vs quality). The instructors support you and very patient

About Acapulco
Acapulco is a Pacific resort city on a deep, curved bay in Guerrero, known for cliff divers, beaches, a Spanish fort and mid-century glamour.
Acapulco wraps around one of the finest natural harbours on Mexico's Pacific coast, a deep bay ringed by green mountains. For more than two centuries it was the Pacific end of the Manila galleon trade, bringing silks and spices from Asia, and Fort San Diego, a pentagonal Spanish fortress above the bay, now holds a history museum. In the 1950s and 1960s it became a glamorous resort, and the zócalo, cathedral and old streets keep a mid-century feel.
