I had an amazing experience with Pako of Adventure Divers for my open water certification dives. Not only is he an all around good guy, but he was so great getting me comfortable in the open water and showing me four different dive sites (plus a great break for surfing) as we were doing my certification. Totally professional in all... More

The reviews were bang on about Adventure Divers. Just came back from our trip and the dives were definitely the highlight. Unfortunately the visibility was not great for the days we dove, but Adventure Divers' professionalism and attention to detail more than made up for it. Even in limited visibility they were able to point out many micro-creatures we'd never... More

Did my open water certification with Pako during my visit to Zihua. Pako is an excellent instructor, providing very clear organization and presentation of the material then giving excellent feedback and suggestions. Small groups mean a customized plan to get the most of your time in the water. More

If you just want to snorkel (not dive), check here too first. Snorkeling at Playa Manzanillo was the best snorkeling we have done in Zihuatanejo area (other years at Playa Gatas and Isla Ixtapa on our own). You need a boat to get to Playa Manzanillo so we booked a trip with Pako. It was great! Lots of fish with... More

If you are interested in diving or a registered diver looking for a trip in Zihuatanejo, I would highly recommend Pako and Maura at Adventure Divers. I have limited diving experience and am not certified. My wife bought me a two-tank dive with Adventure Divers for Christmas. On Jan. 4, 2012, I went with Pako, Maura and four certified divers....

I went on 2 dives recently with Pako and 7 others. They were very attentive to all of the divers. The dive group included students and other divers. They took care of the students but they had enough bandwidth to take care of everyone. They pointed out many small sea creatures that many divers would oversea. We dove by Ixtapa... More

Pako, thank you for a wonderful experience. I spent 3 days diving with Adventure Divers and must admit that I had an even better time than I expected! I found Pako & Adventure Divers through Trip Advisor, and the reviews that I read about him were completely true. He runs a very great company. Pako, Nadia & Bebe were all... More

Always keen on learning how to dive I couldn't have landed with a better instructor than Paco. I got my Scuba Diving certification through Adventure Divers and they will really take care of you. After I finished my basic training, I was taken on my first two dives in open water. I was diving with 5 others who were all... More

Awesome! Pako created a personal experience asking what type of dive I would like to do. We went to a wreck site and the Solitary Rock. Before the dive Pako reviewed all the hand signals that he would use to point out things. Underwater he made sure that I saw everything. His partner, Maura accompanied us taking pictures with a...
