Ever since I discovered climbing and diving for myself, I knew it would be a never-ending adventure. That since there are so many interesting places above and below the water in the world, why not make it possible for everyone to see them. I have been a mountain climber and cave explorer most of my life and have had the honor of participating in many amazing exploration expeditions. I have been professionally involved in scuba diving and dive training for more than a dozen years now.
At Costa Rica Divers, I am the manager and chief instructor. We take great care of the quality of training, so I personally teach or supervise all dive courses. Dive and snorkel tours led by our guides and Divemasters are also directly coordinated by me. You are in good hands!

Do you have a good insurance?
Accidents can happen even in paradise and that sucks. That’s why it’s so important to have good insurance to keep you covered under and above the water.
