Elite Divers International

If you’re in Playa Del Carmen and want to go diving, Elite Divers International is the go to shop. I spent four days with Arthur, Anne, and the team. My main focus was training and I also did guided dives. They do both extremely well. Booking was simple and organized. Communication was excellent. They kept me informed of the daily plan and any changes, responded quickly, and were always happy to answer questions. The whole team is professional, enthusiastic, and generous with their time. They were always ready to answer questions about gear, configurations, dive planning, local conditions, the area, and more. They went above and beyond to help me reach my goals and do an amazing job adapting instruction to strengths and weaknesses of students. They are able to diagnose issues/areas for improvement and give feedback in real time so you can make adjustments and get more out of training. Briefings were thorough and I really enjoyed learning about the cenote history. If you care about top tier training or high quality guided dives, then this is the shop for you.

I had an amazing experience doing four cenote dives with Elite Divers. My dive guides, Mark and Anne, were extremely professional and responsible, always putting safety first from beginning to end. Their rental equipment was very new, …

A solid 5-star dive shop. The diving was incredible and much better in real life than on the videos - on par if not better than the best ocean diving livaboards out there. As an advanced open water certified diver with a limited amount of experience, I did eight dives over four days to get a good feel for what the cenotes have to offer, and each of them is truly unique and offer their own charm and adventure - very difficult to rank. For first time cenote divers, I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them. Both of the dive guides (Mark and Shawn) that worked with me throughout the week were very friendly, patient and accommodating. I also got some useful pointers on how to improve my diving. The days were efficiently run, with pick-up being very punctual and at a reasonable time (8:30), and drop-off between 1pm to 3pm depending on distance travelled, allowing for good post-dive rest and other interests. Anne-Laure managed all of the admin and logistics, and the customer service was second to none. Very clear, comprehensive and prompt communication, and no issues with pricing or receiving confirmation of any payments in advance. All in all, the service served for a very stress free and convenient holiday. If or when I return, I would definitely use EDI again, and I can highly recommend them for guided recreational cenote diving.
