Amazing experience from start to finish!! Brilliant dive school. Everyone was SO friendly, Consuelo was a brilliant dive guide and so great at pointing out interesting fish and identifying them afterwards. Really professional yet relaxed. It was also great to get fruit during the surface interval, drinking water, towel and a hot shower afterwards. The dives also exceeded our expectations - visibility was surprisingly good (given how bad the weather has been!) and we saw loads of interesting fish and coral etc. Pandora shipwreck was really cool! Thank you Pirates!Posted on Google![]()

Qué espectáculo, un destino fantástico para los amantes del buceo. Una de las tiendas con más experiencia en la zona. El equipo qué usan es mi favorito: marca tusa!! Y la atención y buena onda inspiran la confianza que se necesita cuando te sumerges. Super recomendado! 👏🏽🤩Posted on Google![]()

Thanks so much to our dive master Anna and the rest of the Pirates team! Anna was so professional and knowledgeable and I really appreciated the log of the fish we spotted during our sides as well as the GoPro footage. Not only was there a cute cafe on site, a hot shower with towels provided, but I was also able to borrow a kayak to explore the area with after my dive. I hope to be back one day!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
