“I was amazed by the whole experience! The theory part was thorough, we got to try out everything in a safe environmeny in Casa Cenote, Ricardo did an amazing job! The second dive at the open sea was also fun, I’ve done two beginner dives before, but it was so cool to dive side by side with Ricardo. This is totally worth it if you are thinking about it!”

“I just dived with them for the last 3 days it was the best experience ive ever had the instructor i had was paulina she let me take my time when i was nervous we started of in casa senoute its a small sinkhole it is lovely once you get in i wore normal clothes and didnt like the sensation of the wet suit so i wore short and a tshirt while i was diving and it was very comfortable the instructor listens to if u need anything they will help you and when i was on the boat on the 2nd day i was nervous of going backwards and when i did it i ws not scared then the boyancy system brings you up so u dont go full backwards the 1st day was doing exercises in the senote and on the 2nd day we were in the senote for 40 minutes or something like that ginishing off the exercises and then went around the senote and then we went out into the ocean and dived there and they pick you up at 8:30 am everyday and on the 3 rd day i got picked up at 10 am for the 2 ocean dives i was doing the open water course and i reccomend ask for paulina for the dive course she is really helpfull and calms you down if ur nervous and listens to what you have to say so thank you again dive master for this great experience”

Playa del Carmen & the Riviera Maya
The cenotes of the Riviera Maya are located along the Caribbean coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, between the towns of Playa del Carmen and Tulum. These underground sinkholes formed over millions of years as limestone bedrock dissolved, creating vast cave systems filled with crystal-clear freshwater.
The climate is tropical year-round — air temperatures hover between 25-33°C (77-91°F), and cenote water stays a constant 25°C (77°F) regardless of season. This makes cenote diving a year-round activity with no seasonal restrictions. The dry season (November to April) offers the most comfortable weather, while the rainy season (May to October) brings dramatic rain effects that many divers find equally stunning.
The Dive Machine operates from Playa del Carmen, providing transport to cenotes throughout the region. Most cenotes are 30-60 minutes by road. Check diving requirements before your trip.
