đź‘Ťđź‘Ť Great shop and dive experience. Was recommended to me by a local who suggested they are customer focused and not running the overcrowded dive boats. 1/2 dozen dive trips with them and they are simply outstanding. Special shout-out to Gaby, Jorge, Carlos and the girls in the dive shop. Looking for... People often mention dive, shop, diving, Cozumel, Manuel, time, great, Studio, Blue, experience,

    Cozumel is one of the best spot in the world for diving and i decided to get my diving certification there. There are so many diving centers in the island, of all prices and quality. But i can assure you that this one is simply the best ! The best material, experience and staff and it will make your diving experience wonderful. You will dive in small groups and longer dives than other companies in the island. I had Omar as instructor and he could share with me his passion for the water, you feel that he is not working but just doing what he likes. Thanks again Omar for your patience and for sharing all your knowledge with me. Thanks also to Manuel who run his diving center so well and i am really looking forward to come back to Cozumel to dive with you again.

    Somewhat disappointed by the quality of service and lack of awareness regarding time management. If you are in Cozumel I would likely suggest going to a dive shop that does more than 1 dive tour a day, they are more likely to be time efficient with effective systems in place. Showed up at 845 to the dive shop and got to the boat at about 930. Roll call wasn’t taken until we were out at sea, at which time they realized they hadn’t picked someone up. We go back to port and wait for about an hour for the missing diver, who never shows. After our first dive we take an unusually long surface interval, about an hour and a half. With no real explanation as most of us are wearing dive computers and know the surface interval at most needed to be 50 minutes. No snacks are provided despite it now being 12:45. We get done with the second dive, and go back to the port. Instead of sending one person ahead with us, they make us wait at port for another hour to get a taxi. We didn’t arrive back to the shop until almost 4, by which time we had missed the ferry to playa. Honestly if you want to save time to enjoy the other things Cozumel has to offer go with another outfitter. We spent over 7 hours on the boat for 2 dives. Go somewhere else, Cozumel has amazing diving and better outfitters. We dove with blue magic last time and will go there again next time.

    We did 2 dives with Studio Blue Cozumel and couldn’t recommend them more. Our instructor Omar was knowledgeable, very professional and truly committed to give us a great experience. We ended up spending over 2 hours under the water and had the chance to see sharks, rays, and lots of fish & coral. This place is a paradise for divers and this dive shop is professional and great value for money. You won’t regret it!

    Overall I wasn't too impressed with this shop in comparison to others on the island. They quoted me a price and when I returned the next day they wanted $30 more. After some hand wrangling they gave me the original price. But I also bought a piece of gear and the owner removed the tag before he gave it to me. Seemed a bit suspicious, I think he overcharged by $5 to make up for the diving price discrepancy. The dives were great, but you can get that with any shop in Cozumel.

    We stopped by Studio Blue Cozumel on a whim to get a new snorkel for my travel companion. Manuel helped us choose a new one, then answered questions about everything from the weather over the next few days and spots to snorkel, to the dangers of diving after pneumothorax and why Seattle is an infinitely worse place to live than Cozumel (too overcast, rainy, and cold). Manuel was very knowledgeable about the equipment in the shop, spoke impeccable English, and was a truly delightful person to chat with. Prices were reasonable and the selection was good. We got what we needed, and will definitely return for all our diving and snorkeling needs next time we're in Cozumel!

    My family and I visited Thai small dive shop while on vacation. The staff was extremely friendly, honest and humorous. They fitted my wife and kids with the propers masks, snorkels and fins. We did a snorkel trip with them 2 days later. It was a great trip with an exceptional crew. I would highly recommend them.

    We had the best dive experience at Studio Blue. Our dive master, Max, was phenomenal and so attentive. I hadn’t dived in a couple of years and always get nervous. He made sure I was okay and worked on anti-panic techniques so the second dive I could really enjoy! What we loved about this dive shop is the small group requirement. Many of the boats on the water had a huge ratio of divers to dive master and Studio Blue ensures small groups for safety and enjoyment for all! Manuel was very friendly and very attentive as well (shop owner). I would highly recommend this place as well as the reefs in Cozumel, absolutely breathtaking ❤️❤️❤️

    What a great day on the water. We were swimming with the dolphins, turtles, sharks, rays and barracudas. The staff were really knowledgeable, very helpful and taking us to beautiful locations.

    Manuel is wonderful the entire shop is great the staff is extremely friendly. One of the nice things about the shop is that they start later in the day so you can have a leisurely breakfast and still get two Dives in. You usually end up finished around for back at the shop. Just in time for margaritas and a siesta.

    After not diving for several years I did a refresher day with Studio Blue. I went diving with Celine and Jorge and they made me feel safe and confident with my skills again while not forgetting to have fun :)

  • 5/5 Dan O. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been diving with Manuel and Studio Blue since 1992. He has been first class in setting me up for some great dives. Dive boats and dive masters have always been very accommodating. His attention to detail in setting me up with the right equipment is right on point. Thanks for so many great years, see you soon. Dan O’Neill

    Incredible time with Manuel and his team. We went diving and snorkelling for a very attractive price. They are extremely knowledgeable and made us feel safe the entire time.

    I am so lucky to have found this dive shop. Because I haven’t dived since Dec.2019 I was really anxious about going in water again. But these amazing people they gave me the most responsible refresher course possible. The 2 other shops i visited offered me something like 20mins but here I had 2.5hr theory and 0.5hr practice course so I felt completely relaxed and ready when I dived later. It was truly professional, would highly recommend!! Thank you so much Manuel, Jorge and Carlos!

    I needed to purchase a new scuba mask. I ended up walking into Studio Blue Cozumel. Manuel was very knowledgeable and fitted me with a new mask. The prices reflect you are purchasing products on an island, but the assistance and knowledge more than made up for it.

  • 5/5 David L. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was awesome. Manuel was very accommodating (and has a fantastic sense of humor!) and arranged a snorkel for our only day on Cozumel. We hadn't eaten lunch yet, but Manuel arranged for the taxi to the marina to stop at a great place to grab some chicken (and some for the crew of course!) to take onto the boat. Carlos and the boat captain were amazing tour guides and we saw many incredible animals including eagle rays, barracuda, parrot fish, angel fish etc. I would use Studio Blue again, and recommend them without reservation.

    Stopped at the shop to buy a snorkel mask and the guy was really helpful. They had a good selection of nice masks and I found one that worked great for me. I would definitely go here if you want to get snorkel gear or diving gear. We signed up for a snorkel tour with them while we were there. Our guide was good and the crew was nice. We left four stars because the communication wasn’t great. They originally said they would pick us up near our condo at 10am but when we called the to confirm the night before they said they would be an hour earlier. We went to meet them at 9 am but at 930 am they said they were going to be late and ended up meeting them at 10am. Not a huge deal but can’t got the full five stars.

    Awesome experience. Owner is funny and kind. They took us diving even as a group of three. It’s a real pleasure and quite exceptional to dive in small groups. The guide was instructor Omar. Now he is a little piece of gold in the club. Super nice. Friendly. Kind. Understanding. All the qualities which are required for good times! Loved it. I recommend.

    Carlos is an amazing PADI instructor. He clearly communicates with the student and can notice if you're not comfortable with any situation. He will keep you safe during your experience in the water. I highly recommend Carlos.
