Cozumel Scuba Diving

We were amazed with ScubaTonys Service from reservations until we were done with our 2 tank dive on a private charter. We had Manu as our dive master and Hector as our boats captain. He was very attentive to our wants and needs, and made sure we were safe the entire dive trip. We went to Palancar Gardens to an incredible spot complete with a nice swim through. we saw all the creatures i wanted to see and then some!! He knew exactly where they would be !! Toad fish ,octopus, Crabs,Lobsters, rays even a friendly little sleeping shark! Thanks Manu we will be back and staying for a couple weeks so we can dive with you again! and i must say your private charter is awesome ! just me and my wife a dive master and the boat captain well worth the few extra bucks ! and Thanks for helping us even with our short notice ! 5 stars for all of you that made our trip possible and so awesome !! Thanks ScubaTony ! we will be back soon !!

As usual Scubatony didn't disappoint. I have been diving Cozumel since the early 80s and Scubatony is by far the best operator I have ever dove with. From. Your very first email to your last dive they bend over backwards to make sure your trip is everything you want it to be.

I’ve logged more than 75 dives with Scubatony in the last few years - my friends and I come yearly and there is no question as to who we dive with. Over the years, some people have moved on, other great additions to the crew have been made but what has never changed is that Scubatony delivers on the promise to make diving in Cozumel outstanding, safe and always keep you coming back for more. Thanks again to Papo (the best captain and one of my favorite humans), Charlie (our divemaster) and Adam (owner) for making this another wonderful experience! ¡A la proximal mi Cozumelina familia!

My neighbors via Facebook recommended me to use Scuba Tony. It was as good as an experience I could imagine. It was very professional, fun and a great emphasis on safety.

Did a two-tank dive with divemaster Mark on Dec. 13, 2018 and it was a great all-around experience on many levels. There were five of us on the trip: two had lots of experience, and three of us had less (these were my 14th and 15th dives).

Mark was very professional and made everyone feel relaxed and safe. He was a big proponent of going slow and being safe. We went to two different reefs in the national marine park and saw everything from nurse sharks to turtles to eagle rays and a lobster. I had never tried drift diving before and loved the experience.

Everyone on the dive was friendly and interesting, and it felt like we were part of a team together, which is an advantage of being on a small boat (max six divers).

Note, Scuba Tony doesn't have a dive shop in town, so you have to take a cab to the marina, which costs between US$5 and $10 each way depending on how generous the cab drivers are feeling that day. (If you are staying on Cozumel, they will come pick you up at your hotel if you are on the way to the park.)

Finally, Andrea was great to deal with setting up the dive. I had originally booked a trip for the following day, but the weather was looking iffy (I had one dive cancelled in Isla Mujeres that trip already). I contacted Andrea about moving the dive ahead one day and she was quick to get back to me and sort it out. So, great customer service all around from booking to the boat.

I hope to get back to Cozumel someday, and when I do I would definitely book with ScubaTony again.

4 of us (2 couples) went to the discover scuba dive with Scubatony, and our simple response is WOW. The trainer Mr. Israel was simply great in guiding us. He took us to a shallow water first to make sure we are comfortable with the all the kit, showed us basic hand signs, made sure each of us are able to perform some basic techniques like clearing water in mask, sinus equalizing. I did not get sinus equalizing well, yet I enjoyed the dive - thanks to the buoyant trainer had and taking us all the way around reefs. If you are traveling to Cancun, my suggestion is to go to Cozumel for the dive. Worth the price.

My Girlfriend and I were diving with Scubatony from the 28.12.18-03.01.19 and it just was WOW, WOW, WOW. Beautiful dive sites, professional and very friendly crew from the administration, to the captains and last but not least the dive instructors. We had such a great time here and we are desperately to come back as soon as possible and of course we‘ll dive again with those guys. So thx to all the staff members of scubatony in making this trip absolutely unforgettable!

My boyfriend and I came to Cozumel on a dive trip hoping to get back into diving. He had an unfortunate experience with equipment malfunctioning at a different operator in Costa Rica, which led him to run out of air at 95ft. This made him a bit nervous about diving again. I’m usually a very anxious diver and had some reservations about diving with current in Cozumel to the point that I was so scared to go that I almost cancelled diving for the whole week.

I email Scuba Tony my concerns and explained the situation that happened to my boyfriend, he was very prompt in his responses and very understanding. He recommended to hire a private DM for the first couple of days to help ease into diving again. We had Marc as our private DM for 2 days and I can honestly say he was the best instructor and guide we have ever had!

He was very understanding and listened to our concerns and prior experiences, gave us very detailed descriptions of the dive site we were going to and provided recommendations the whole time on how to improve our diving. We never felt rushed and I felt completely safe the whole time. After a few initial anxiety attacks, he helped me calm down and relax underwater so I can enjoy my dives to the fullest.

Marc, thank you for taking such good care of us and helping us both feel more confident and safe under water! Also huge shoutout to Hector, our captain. He was absolutely fantastic with helping us get in and out of the water, making sure we had snacks, drinks and even gave jackets to everyone who was cold. Also I swear he has eagle eyes, he spots divers on the surface a mile away!

Overall Scuba Tony dive operator is 5 star from their prompt responses via email, personalized experience on the boat (each customer has a say about what dive sites to dive each day), free snacks, fruit, water in reusable water bottle and most importantly their exceptional customer service.

We will definitely be back to dive with Scuba Tony again and won’t hesitate to recommend them to all of our friends!

I've scuba'd all around the world and my best experience yet has been with ScubaTony. We hired a private boat with dive master Marc - he took us to the coolest reef's and did a fantastic job of avoiding the big, mass-commercialized dive groups. Everywhere we went we were by ourselves and saw all the wildlife the area had to offer. We are definitely going to plan another trip next year and hopefully Marc will still be there. Do yourself a favor and book with ScubaTony for your next cozumel dive trip!

I'm not usually good at writing reviews, but then again I read them before going / experiencing something so here is my short version of a great experience.
Scubatony was awesome. Communication was great from the very beginning. Adam is very responsive and helpful.
Israel was a pleasure to learn with and I'm a certified diver thanks to him. I feel confident that I gained the knowledge needed to become a recreational diver and I will for sure come back to Cozumel and will again use Scubatony services.
