During a vacation in Mexico, my wife and I were looking for diving options with a Russian-speaking instructor, we chose Alexander and never regretted it. The training in the pool and both dives went just fine. At the same time, depending on our wishes, we were offered several options and we settled on diving next to a coral reef.
Alexander explained each stage in detail and dispelled all fears, and since this was my first dive, there were many questions about pressure, about "won't it bite me..." or, for example, what to do with the mask at depth if it fumes or the water floods. Thanks to Alexander for the great atmosphere and the sea of impressions from what he saw in the Caribbean Sea))
We went on a romantic trip to Mexico. The goal was diving at the Musa Underwater Museum. We were ONLY looking for a Russian-speaking instructor. I found and chose Alexander in the search and did not regret it. He is very calm, attentive, confident and this confidence is transmitted to you) The price is definitely lower than others. In addition to the training, there are two dives in the pool. In the museum and on the reef. The group is small. Us and a couple more. As a bonus, Alexander took cool photos for free!!!, which others cost up to $ 80! By the way, we even met a turtle!
Guys, this is something special.Over the past 4 years, my wife and I have visited more than 30 countries, and I have been looking for something of my own all the time, but without success.And so in Mexico I found what I want to do all my life, namely diving.As for the holding, it is impossible to imagine better.Our guide turned out to be beyond praise .I showed everything in the pool and told in detail, but as for diving into the sea, on the first dive I caught a fierce panic, because water got into the mask, and I couldn't blow through, and knowing myself, I already wanted to give up this idea altogether, but the instructor immediately took everything into his own hands,He quickly explained what the mistake was, literally took my hand, and slowly and clearly went through the dive with me.Well, further, further, something incomprehensible to the mind.In complete silence, you see something inexpressible that you used to see only in National Geographic, then you learn to regulate the level of ascent with your breath, and then you start to feel so comfortable that you don't want to float to the top.
P.s Thanks to Blue Dive for a super adventure, I will be in the Dominican Republic in 2 weeks and be sure with their help, I will get my first certificate.If you want to try diving, just come here, no options!)
We were diving with Alexander for the first time in our lives: a husband and son of 15 years. There was a training session in the pool and 2 dives at the underwater museum in Cancun and on the reef. I really liked everything! Organized, clear, understandable. Sasha, thank you so much for the impressions! We will be happy to repeat it in the cenotes next time. We recommend it to everyone!
An incredible experience and an indescribable feeling of diving! Many thanks to instructor Alexander, who patiently explained everything and did not back down until everything worked out for me. I had fears before diving, but after that I was very glad that I did it (twice!!!). It was definitely worth it! Amazing sculptures, cars, lots of fish... In general, you need to experience this at least once in your life :)
I performed a couple of amateur dives with Alexander near the Island of Women - in the "sculpture museum" and a little further on the reef. The reef is rich in fish - huge shoals rub against the corals. It feels like I was on the set of Jacques Yves Cousteau's Underwater Odyssey.
It is organized competently - everything is fast, clear, and understandable. They say you can still swim in the cenotes, but I didn't have time.
As a holiday resort, I recommend it.
We were trained by Alexey Golovesov, we recommend it! I explained everything clearly and intelligibly, the skill level is immediately visible! We passed the courses, received certificates, we are very satisfied, we overcame all fears!
Thank you so much.

I highly recommend Alexander. We dived with him to the museum, to the barrier reef and to the cenotes. It was amazing! The organization is at the highest level and safety is above all. The reef off the island of women is rich in fish, and we also met two turtles. We dived in the cenotes of El Pit and Dos Ojos. In El Pit, I strongly recommend going down into the pit, the optical sensations that you will get will not be compared to anything.
I want to express my great gratitude to Alexander! First we had training in the pool, then two dives - a museum and reefs.
Alexander told everything in detail, showed it, constantly monitored the whole process and the well-being of the participants!
The dive was just great!!!
I highly recommend contacting Alexander
The two of them took a course for the Open Water Diver certificate with Alexander. First we worked out in the pool, then we did 4 dives in 2 days. We learned how to take off and put on equipment underwater, keep neutral buoyancy, told a lot of theory about pressure and the principles of operation of regulators and other equipment, what to do in emergency cases when the air runs out, etc. After that, there really is a feeling that you can dive in more serious places, and with more independence.
At the same time, on the dives themselves, in addition to practicing exercises, there is a lot of time to look at the reefs and a bunch of different underwater inhabitants. Ideal for a resort: you can get a certificate and have a very cool time.
In general, everything was great! This is our second dive, the first was in Egypt and we didn't like it very much and in general we came to the conclusion that diving is not our occupation and that there is nothing interesting in it, but today we were pleasantly surprised by how everything went, we swam very comfortably, no problems and inconveniences, we had a lot of fun!!! I definitely recommend it!
We dived for the first time! I really liked it! Alexander did a great job, he trained in the pool and then helped a lot when diving. I recommend this professional instructor to everyone!
We dived together with the girl, despite her slight fear of water, and the first dive went fine. Alexander spoke in detail about all the basic things and skills, all worked out in the pool and then 2 dives into the sea. For a long time and patiently they chose a wetsuit for the girl, so that it would be warmer under water. In each dive, Alexander helped us, suggested how to behave better underwater, even took a photo for memory. We all tried to find a turtle, but alas, probably next time:(we will definitely come ourselves and recommend it to our friends!
PS oh yes, well, the price as a whole cannot but please)
Alexander, thank you so much for the excellent briefing, as well as the further walk through the underwater world that you organized for us. It was my first dive and I had a lot of impressions!!!
Alexander is a very good, customer-oriented and responsive instructor. If you want to have fun with your soul, have fun and photos as a bonus, then I recommend it.
We went with a young man. He has an advanced level, and I had to take an open water course to get an OWD. I looked at several companies and settled on this option, because, communicating via the whats app with the instructor, he provided all the necessary information in advance and a very convenient location - in the Cancun hotel area.
As a result, it was with great pleasure that we served at the underwater museum and near the reef. We wanted to go back to Cozumel, but it didn't work out because of the weather(.
Alexander took the course from me and issued a certificate)))). And on the same day in the evening I was pleased with cool photos absolutely for free!
It was one of the best adventures of my life, full of vivid emotions, impressions and colors!
My wife and I were diving for the first time. I really liked the approach of instructor Alexander to beginners. He met us and escorted us to the diving center. He has already individually selected equipment for us on the spot. I gave instructions first on the ground - I told about the equipment (what and how it is called, how it works), the main signs and rules under water, and so on. Then he conducted a series of exercises with us underwater in the pool. After he made sure that each of us remembered all the signs and completed all his tasks correctly, we went to the place of the first dive - it was the museum of the submarine in Cancun. And I'll tell you this is just an incredible place. A very interesting exposition, with a sense and an interesting idea of the master. In addition to sculptures and compositions, we were lucky enough to meet a huge sea turtle there, which in itself is a rarity. Then we went to the second dive site - the coral reef. This place is simply teeming with bright, unusual and rare representatives of the underwater world. In addition to beautiful and colorful fish of different sizes, especially for us, Alexander was looking for masked inhabitants of the sea. We saw a nurse shark, a huge lobster and crab, as well as other animals and plants. It was an unforgettable day for both of us.
Many thanks to Instructor Alexander for discovering the wonderful underwater world of the Mexican coast for us. We advise and recommend everyone to take a dive at least once in their life! It will be simply impossible to stop later!
We are very satisfied! Now we are certified divers 😋 We dived and trained with Alexander in Mexico (December), all the fears that were in my head are now in the past! Thanks to Sasha, at a reasonable price and in complete safety, we sank to 18m, about . Cozumel, the visibility is amazing, the sea inhabitants and the feeling of being an underwater cosmonaut are unforgettable ,now all thoughts about how soon to repeat it all are Agreed in advance, everything is according to plan, a punctual and experienced instructor, in Russian and as accessible as possible will make you a dive-dependent person) in a good sense of the word Thank you, Alexander!
Good diving, everything is very interesting. We did a trial dive in the pool and Alex realized who he was going to dive with) The instructor was great and our dives were very exciting, despite the fact that I was very worried. In general, I definitely recommend it, next time I will definitely go to him.
I was in Mexico at the end of October. I contacted Alexander via Skype back in Russia, discussed everything, agreed on everything, so I went on vacation with full confidence that everything would go without problems) By the way, this was my first dive... We met at the ferry in Playa Del Carmen and went to Cozumel Island, less than an hour away, and we were already on board the boat with a cheerful company and music. Having a little experience in snorkeling with Alexander's intuitive instincts, it was not difficult for me to make my first dive, and the beauty of the seabed dispelled the last remnants of unpleasant sensations and calmed my nerves. It's definitely worth living for such impressions))) I definitely recommend it to both beginners and experienced divers! For reasonable money, you get an almost individual tour.

Everything went divinely! This was my second dive, (the first was in Turkey, and it went terribly) That's why I was a little nervous. But the instructor, Alyona, had a great briefing in the pool, we worked out all the unforeseen situations (which, by the way, I was not even warned about at the first dive). Then, as a bonus, we also got a story about the flora and fauna of Mexico while riding a boat to the museum. There were only two people in the group (me and my boyfriend), we were constantly under Alena's supervision, I went down with her by the handle to the bottom and after I completely calmed down and was able to swim herself, she did not pull us (again, this was with me in Turkey, while I was in a state of shock They just dragged me by the sleeve to take pictures with the fish and then sell the photos, which only aggravated the panic, since I couldn't relax), but only gently swam up to check if everything was in order and the presence of air in the bolon. We swam for 30 minutes in the museum, and 40 minutes on the Reef, then Alyona also told us about the fish we saw, everything went really perfectly, she loved diving with all her heart! Thanks!
It was like in Egypt! I did not think that in Cancun I would meet such a picturesque reef with so many bright fish! 👍 Everything is organized in a simple and accessible way. A half-day event and so many impressions! Of course, it was a little creepy with the statues, but the car and the houses amused!)) Thank you Alexander! For an exciting diving experience! I liked everything!👍
We had a great dive with Alex and the wife got an Open Water.
I have been friends with the balloon for a long time, but I plunged into the sharks for the first time!
Thank you!)
I dived with instructor Alexander, I am very pleased with the professional approach and just communication. Thank you so much for organizing the dive in the cenotes and on Cozumel. I recommend it to everyone. I'll come back later next time to catch the sharks, and definitely only with him.
