I am completely impressed with Alvero`s guidance in teaching me some of the nuances of safe and exciting diving. In his many years of experience instilled a greater confidence in this beginner, and his encouragement is infectious so that I will continue to refine my skills and will come back for the privilege of diving with this master of scuba. There could be no one better to teach you the fundamentals and appreciation of this wonderful sport. Cheers for Alvero.

Alvaro always provides great dives. He is a true professional who is knowledgeabe, patient, honest, and kind. I heartily recommend Alvaro to anyone (from novice to expert) coming to Cancun to dive. He is GREAT!

Patient, calm and professional.
I have known Alvaro Gonzalez for almost 9 years. He taught me to dive, to be a real diver, not just a recreational diver.” He has from the start, put me at ease. He is always very patient, calm and professional.Every dive trip with Al is an adventure, never a dull moment and as a bonus, he films all my dives so I can share my experience with friends and family. Thanks to Al, I feel at home under the water. I will always be grateful to Al for sharing this wonderful underwater world with me! MaryAnn Mayfield- Palm Coast, Florida USA

Magical Experience
I dove with Always Diving for my first ocean dive following my certification at home. I was inexperienced, nervous, and a bit sea-sick. Alvaro was patient, encouraging and most importantly had the ability to judge my abilities and anticipate my needs. As a result, I was able to relax and enjoy my first ocean dive and appreciate the all the amazing reef had to offer: the fish, the corals, the sharks and more. It was a magical experience and increased my confidence. Thank you Alvaro….I know I will be back to dive with you again soon! Mo

Alvaro Gonzalez introduced us to diving with a resort course, then worked with us to obtain PADI OW and AOW certifications. He is a superb instructor, and we plan to continue our dive education with him. We return to Cancun every May to dive with Alvaro. To date, we have done 54 dives with him, and can honestly say that of all the instructors and guides we have dove with, he is our favorite.
When you dive with Alvaro, you don’t feel like you’re with a guide, or an instructor. You feel like you’re diving with an old friend.
If you’re planning to dive anywhere in the Cancun area, you cannot go wrong by diving with Alvaro.

Alvaro is top-notch. I have been diving with him for 4 years now and he is the ONLY guide I use when I go to the Yucatan Peninsula, I am currently shooting HD underwater film and some technical diving, and the only man I trust to keep me safe and to see amazing places is Alvaro, anything else is second best. If you ever dive with him let me know if you agree with the callsign I dubbed him with – the Human Marmot.
