Cenote Xperience

My family booked, consisting of myself and wife (who are very experienced with multiple certifications) and our 16 year old daughter with 5 dives. I booked with Cenote Xperiance online with a small deposit. Upon arrival the team was prompt and very outwardly concerned with making the dives and experience easy for us. They spent extra time with my daughter determining her comfort level which I wasn’t worried about but appreciated it for sure. Martin (one of the owners-​family owned business) picked us up right on time from our hotel in a clean truck everyday, saving us cab rides. We dived the first day in Playa ocean (which was what we expected), Next day in Cozumel,(spectacular)and the last day in the Cenotes, (unbelievable). We never once felt anything but complete professionalism. Even down to Martin retesting the Nitrox right in front of us to make sure the tanks were labeled correctly. Or encouraging us (no pushy) to eat after every dive. These people are some of the nicest people I’ve ever dived with. They are the people you root for to make it in their business venture. and I believe they will make it, bc they do things right and clearly care and are crazy honest… We are even friends on FB now! Great team there! Worth every penny and more! Keep up the great work guys and you’ll live on the other side of the highway in no time! Please stay in touch and Martin… Marry that girl! Haha!

We dove the cenotes for the first time and it was awesome! Don’t think I’ll make it a career to dive them, because it’s a totally different sensation then diving open water, but I’m so glad we did it! Don’t go expecting to see marine life, but go expecting to have an awesome, indescribable sensory experience. The shop was great and easy to deal with. It is off the main path, but I recommend you get off 5^th street to find great vendors! We would use Dive Mike’s again, in a heart beat!

What a spectacular experience! We had a bit of a mishap organizing pick up time but Nicolas and Nani sure made up for it with the entire day — they have well maintained equipment and their shop was very close to their hotel.
Once we were geared up we drove to the Cenote where we did our briefing. It was a longish briefing (15minutes or so) but wow, Nicolas knows his stuff! He gave us a really in depth safety briefing as well as educated us on the Cenotes and prepared us on what to expect. From the salt/​fresh water mixing & visibly to the light and rock formations.
Right down to the tiniest details, like a tarp to remove your wetsuits without getting dirty and tasty sandwiches for lunch. I’d highly recommend these guys both for their professionalism and their fun personalities!

Ahora que vivo en la Riviera Maya y que todo parece una gran vacación, aunque he trabajado como nunca, pero como mi trabajo lo requiere, así que he viajado hasta donde he podido, a montón de cenotes hermosos, que son un placer a la vista. Esas formaciones gigantes que se hicieron gota a gotita y que al snorkelear, parece otro mundo completamente diferente, me hicieron darme cuenta que me estaba perdiendo de un tesoro submarino y de repente, me entraron ganas de bucear porque hay todo un mundo inexplorado bajo mis pies y que, por lo poco que había visto en videos, se me aceleraba el corazón con cada video y me hacía sentir más viva que nunca.
En la calle 34, esquina con la 20, está Cenote Xperience, ellos tienen el curso para amateurs como yo, por ejemplo, por $ 90 USD (si eres playense, pregunta porque mejoran el precio para locales) tomas el Discover Scuba Diving y te llevan para un primer acercamiento a la alberca del restaurante contiguo y allí pruebas si la experiencia te late o si mejor no. Una vez que te dan la plática de seguridad, códigos, señales y todo, te llevan a un cenote o a al mar, dependiendo de qué prefieras y ya pruebas de verdad la experiencia de bucear, de allí en adelante, puedes certificarte según la experiencia que tengas y/​o el dinero, ja, que está carito, pero en todos lados anda más o menos igual, así es la onda de la descendida a otro mundo, cara, pero vale 100% la pena. Nicolás o Martín son expertazos, así que, recomendadísimos, ¡hazlo! ¡Es lo máximo de lo máximo!

Desde muy pequeña he sido una amante del mar, a tal punto que estuve a punto de estudiar biología marina, pero el destino me llevo a descubrir el mundo submarino a través de otros ojos, la fotografía. Cuando tuve mi primera experiencia de buceo en la Isla de Pascua, por una grabación de un documental, fue maravilloso, la experiencia más mágica que he vivido, pero la vida no me llevó o no busqué la opción para continuar tan hermoso deporte.
Llegué a Playa del Carmen y nuevamente el bichito del buceo llegó a mi cabeza y comencé a buscar cursos. Encontré a Cenote Xperiencie, ubicado en la calle 34 con esquina 20. La atención es excelente, donde te explican con la mejor de las sonrisas de cómo son los distintos tipos de cursos desde el más básico hasta las más especializadas. La tienda además cuenta para la venta y renta una gran variedad de equipos, desde traje de neopreno hasta luces para poder explorar el hermoso mar del caribe y las bellas y misteriosas cuevas de los cenotes.
Gran parte de la magia de la península de Yucatán esta bajo sus aguas. Cenote Xperience es una súper opción para aprender de este hermoso deporte que te vera ver cosas que nunca imaginaste. Los precios de los cursos van desde 90 dólares para saber si te gusta el buceo y el de 350 dólares es para súper pro llamado rescue diver.
Pronto seré un verdadero pececillo bajo el mar.

Nicolas (Nico) and his brother Martin own and are the sole staff for this wonderful outfit. This was my second time diving Dos Ojos– last time was 12 years ago. The company I used last time is not what they use to be. My buddy and I were picked up at the ferry after crossing from Cozumel, so we didn’t have to hassle taxis. Xperience gave us total discretion on choosing our dive site. Based upon their knowledge of visibility and dive conditions we opted for D.O. Conditions were excellent. Martin and Nicolas have been doing this for a while and Martin’s professionalism was very obvious throughout. We had, water, drinks, fruit and cookies in between dives. And we all had huge delicious sandwiches after the dive. Did I mention Nitrox was free? And they were less expensive than other outfits. These guys are tops– no ifs, ands nor buts. Thanks «Xperience».
