    I recently had the pleasure of diving with Gildas and I cannot recommend them enough. From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and welcoming. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that our dive experience was safe, enjoyable, and unforgettable. Our dive instructors were patient and thorough, taking the time to answer any questions we had and ensuring that we were comfortable and confident throughout the entire experience. The dive sites they took us to were stunning and filled with an abundance of marine life that we were able to witness up close. The equipment provided was top-notch and well-maintained, giving us peace of mind as we explored the underwater world. The boat crew was also fantastic, always there to lend a helping hand and make sure we had everything we needed. Overall, I had an incredible time diving with Gildas and his crew. Their attention to detail, commitment to safety, and passion for diving made for a truly unforgettable experience. I will definitely be diving with them again in the future!

    Met and dove with Gildas in September 2022 in Cozumel. He was so attentive and professional in explaining the reef in Cozumel and provided us with tips on how to improve our diving. We were able to dive and explore some cool creatures with the help of his flashlight dancing in the caves. Fast forward to a few months later April 2023, we made sure to book our next dive with him and his team this time bringing a larger much less experience group with us knowing that they would be in safe and competent hands. We all had a terrific experience diving with Gildas and will continue recommending him to any level of diver for a fun, safe, and wonderful experience under the sea🐚🌊🐠 thank you very much for hosting and having us! 🫶🏻

    Gildas is a very knowledgeable dive instructor! He takes the time to go more in-depth with his instruction and he is dedicated to teaching his students skills that will give them proper technique so that they can be better divers.

    My friend and I were doing our advanced open water with Gildas and we had a great time. He did a great job and helped me build more confidence in my diving skills. Thank you so much! :)

    Gildas is the best! I had just gotten certified and was nervous initially to do my first dives and he really helped me overcome that. He taught me a lot of practical information that I didn’t learn in my certification training. He helped me so much! I highly recommend Gildas for dive training and guided dive tours!

    We had the most wonderful time today diving with Gildas ! Our 11-year son wanted to discover scuba diving. We know how first time experiences can be challenging . They may lead to passions or to fears. Gildas gave the best experience to our son. He took his time explaining the different steps. He was very calm, patient, and very reassuring. He also shared his passion by showing our son the wonders you can see underwater. After 2 dives, our son now wants to get certified! We will be back for sure! We highly recommend Gildas.

    My friend and I have just finished our Advanced Open Water Course with Gildas. He is a really pleasant person to be around - really authentic, funny and smart. This is also reflected in his approach to teach. You are going to learn a lot from him, while enjoying yourself and the marine life on Cozumel. Furthermore, Gildas helped me to overcome a challenging situation in the water. As a person he can read the learning style as well as the personality of people kind of well, which allows him to adapt to the needs of the clients. I would definitely recommend Gildas.

    Gildas is a wonderful dive instructor. He made sure our entire crew was always comfortable and made everyone feel secure throughout the entire experience. Can't wait for another underwater adventure!

    Gildas and the Cozumel Adventures crew showed us such an amazing time! It was my first dive and they were all so great with teaching and guiding us through our first dive! They made the experience very comfortable for my friends and I. It was truly one of the best times ever!

    I had a great experience with Gildas for my PADI 1 (Open Water). He was really knowledgeable and took the time to explain parts in depth when I didn't quite understand. I felt safe and secure through all of my dives and he also made me laugh! Would definitely recommend 👌

    Diving with Gildas was a blast! My boyfriend and I did our advanced course with him and we both can tell that we definitely feel like we enhanced our scuba diving techniques with him. We also did a blackwater and a night dive. In the advance course we chose to do navigation, deep dive and buoyancy. We also modified the dives to be all from boat except for one that was from shore. Gildas was super flexible, had great few simple exercise to make us practice and he was the perfect balance between fun and serious. I’ve never felt unsafe under the water with Gildas and when I felt nervous about my first night dive and my first blackwater, he reassured me with the perfect balance of what are the risk, what to expect and what are the most important things to do so the dive stays safe. We did not plan to come back to cozumel after our trip, but now, I promise you we will soon return to do the cenote dive with him!!

    My friend and I did our Open Water Certification with Gildas in Cozumel and it was awesome. Gildas is a really great instructor! We had a really great time with him. He brought us to Palancar Gardens which is s very nice place to dive into corals. 🪸🐠🐡🐢 The view undersea was truly amazing. I recommend Gildas and diving in Cozumel a 1000% 👌🏼🤩

    Fantastic Dive with Gildas! Gildas is multi-lingual and was extremely good at speaking English which really put me at ease when diving. Very knowledgeable and environmentally conscious Diver. Would strongly recommend!

    Been a great experience for my first diving. Very supportive Instructor, the boat was comfortable, and the food was also amazing.

    I did my open water and my advanced ow with Gildas. He is so dedicated and interested in shearing his love for diving and you can see that in every dive with him. He made sure to take the time to explain and treat every question I had seriously, had patience and know how to manage my problems under water - so it made me feel super relaxed during the dive and gain more confidence in my own diving, especially with tips he gave me. I’m sure that one of the reasons I fell in love with diving it’s because how he introduced the diving world to me. :)

    A pretty great discover Scuba with Gildas and Tommy. We got to discover the underwater life and the magnificent coral formations in Cozumel. Tommy was a great instructor and he allowed us to be at ease in the ocean. The boat itself was great and the meal was nice! It was a great day overall and we couldn’t have made it any better. Having this first experience with you guys was a blast, and now we want to turn this into a passion that we’d do every now and then! Thanks so much! :)

    Thanks to Gildas, I had the best first diving experience ever. Started from 9:30 to 14:30, almost 5hours, fully and kindly instructed by Gildas, I could be able to enjoy the time on the boat and in water feeling safe. Even though I am not good at swimming, it was successfully done :) He’s gonna give you all the information you need in advance and also keep checking you in the water to make it sure that you are safe, so if you are thinking of trying diving for the first time, trust Gildas, he is the great instructor, go for it❤️

    Gildas is an outstanding scuba instructor! He is incredibly knowledgeable and patient, and he taught me everything I need to know to safely and confidently explore the underwater world. He has a great sense of humor, making every dive a fun and memorable experience. I highly recommend Gildas for anyone looking for an excellent scuba instructor.

  • 5/5 Roni L. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend Gildas! I did my OW certification with him, and was a little nervous at first because I’m not a good swimmer, but he was very attentive and made me feel safe the entire time. Also - he interacts with marine life like no other instructor I’ve seen, playing off of their curiosity. It was like watching My Octopus Teacher in action. :) Will definitely go diving with Gildas again when I’m back!
