Highlight of the week - We booked with Manta for the discover scuba tour with a second dive. Our instructor Kosta was great, very knowledgeable and funny. After an equipment issue and a brief class we got the boat. My wife, son, and I were the only people on the class. When we got on the boat we were joined by another instructor, Chui, and Captain Flash. Turns out scuba is harder than I thought but our son took eight to it. My wife and I took a little longer but Kosta got us under the water in no time. The second dive site had a ton of sea life and well worth it. It was the highlight of our trip and I will book with Manta again.

First try - Costas, our guide, gave clear and easy to understand instructions. We went at a pace we were comfortable with. Amazing close up look at various fish.
Might be a little challenging if you have trouble with ears/sinuses equalizing pressure.
Otherwise, Highly Recommend!

Great guide, amazing marine life, poor office communication - A fantastic experience and great guide! Eduardo ensured that everything went well from the first steps in the shop, to equipment, to underwater tour! The marine life was amazing and worth it!

Amazing experience - Fabulous experience. Our guide, "Jesus" put us completely at ease. He was so knowledgeable and experienced and great with my 11 and 14 year old daughters. The entire team was completely professional while still being fun. We'll definitely do this again.

Manta Divers for Life - Monik was a great teacher for an Intro to Scuba Diving, very focused on safety and enjoyment for the participants. She was passionate about the future of scuba diving for her career and training young participants with a safety focus The Captain of the boat, Jamie was incredible at handling the support vessel while we participated in our dives, navigating for and protecting the divers in the water, in very busy waters with many water activities adjacent to our dive. The admin team to the Manta Web site and online reservation and communications process with email billing and whatsApp was really efficient and easy. Not to mention trusting, when we left after our trip, forgetting to pay for our second tank dives. This was easy to pay for from our hotel room. We will dive with Manta again in the future, the next time we come to Cabo San Lucas. Thank you again Manta Team.

Love it! - We were very lucky to have Kosta as our guide. We had a wonderful time! He patiently demonstrated and taught us everything we needed about scuba diving. We did two dive, Kosta pointed out everything he found. We saw sea lion, and tons of different fished, also an octopus! Highly recommend.

New open water diver, soon to be long time customer. - Kevin and the whole crew at Manta Scuba were awesome! It was my first open water dive after being certified in the US and the staff was extremely accommodating. As a beginner it was great to have a 1 on 1 experience with a certified diver. The dive was beautiful seeing a variety of wildlife including my favorite a sleeping reef shark. My girlfriend tagged along and was able to snorkel from the boat which made the experience even smoother! On top of the great dive experience we got to take a pit stop at the iconic Cabo arch between dives. Can’t wait to dive again with the manta group.

Fantastic introduction to scuba diving! - Fantastic introduction to scuba diving! All 4 people in my party were new to scuba diving but the instructors were very informative and made sure to not only teach us but also let us first practice the necessary skills for basic scuba diving.
We also had the flexibility to do a second dive (for an additional ~$45 USD per person), of which three of us elected to do.
Even after one of our party became seasick, the crew handled it very professionally and promptly cleaned and disinfected the boat.
The full trip was roughly three hours from 1 to 4 PM. We were lucky enough to be the only people in the shop at that time and got our own boat. The atmosphere was very relaxed yet professional, with enough flexibility to accommodate for any mishaps.
Overall a great experience for all of us, would absolutely recommend Manta Scuba Diving for their Beginner Scuba Diving excursion!
