My son and I booked a double - tank dive for the reefs off of Playa Del Carmen and had a great time. It had been some time since either of us had done open water diving and we took the morning refresher course before heading out to the reef. Our instructor, Paco, was very knowledgeable and a thoroughly competent instructor who put us through the full skills refresher. The reef dive was a great experience, diving to 40-50 feet along the reef and enjoying the marine life: sea turtles, rays, lobster, eels, barracuda, and dozens of species of large and small fish. Visibility was excellent, in the range of 100 feet. I highly recommend Blue Dream divers.
