WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Tim Trotter
"Had a blast with Marco.. I've got a few hundred dives elsewhere, but this was my first pacific dive. Hoping for some bigger fauna and Marco didn't disappoint, saw 3 huge Manta rays on the 2nd dive near Las Catalinas..."
David Day
"I did two days of diving with Marco in late February at Catalina...Very nice to be on your own schedule in the water and you can tell that Marco is just as excited to see things as you are, will definitely rebook next time I visit."
"Diving with Marco was the best part of my trip in Costa Rica! I’m a certified diver and my girlfriend did the discover diving. Marco by far was the best teacher, guide, and diving buddy I have ever experienced."

Hi! I'm Marco
I believe real confidence in the ocean creates safer, more aware divers and helps people connect with the sea on a deeper level.
​
By keeping every experience private, I’m able to make it personal. We don’t rush through a checklist of skills. Instead, you gain real-world knowledge, practical understanding, and the kind of confidence that only comes from doing things properly.
​
The Catalina Islands are the perfect classroom. The conditions here allow us to encounter real scenarios while surrounded by incredible marine life and powerful underwater landscapes, experiences that shape you into a capable, prepared diver.
