If you just want to snorkel (not dive), check here too first. Snorkeling at Playa Manzanillo was the best snorkeling we have done in Zihuatanejo area (other years at Playa Gatas and Isla Ixtapa on our own). You need a boat to get to Playa Manzanillo so we booked a trip with Pako. It was great! Lots of fish with... More

If you are interested in diving or a registered diver looking for a trip in Zihuatanejo, I would highly recommend Pako and Maura at Adventure Divers. I have limited diving experience and am not certified. My wife bought me a two-tank dive with Adventure Divers for Christmas. On Jan. 4, 2012, I went with Pako, Maura and four certified divers....

I went on 2 dives recently with Pako and 7 others. They were very attentive to all of the divers. The dive group included students and other divers. They took care of the students but they had enough bandwidth to take care of everyone. They pointed out many small sea creatures that many divers would oversea. We dove by Ixtapa... More

Pako, thank you for a wonderful experience. I spent 3 days diving with Adventure Divers and must admit that I had an even better time than I expected! I found Pako & Adventure Divers through Trip Advisor, and the reviews that I read about him were completely true. He runs a very great company. Pako, Nadia & Bebe were all... More

Always keen on learning how to dive I couldn't have landed with a better instructor than Paco. I got my Scuba Diving certification through Adventure Divers and they will really take care of you. After I finished my basic training, I was taken on my first two dives in open water. I was diving with 5 others who were all... More

Awesome! Pako created a personal experience asking what type of dive I would like to do. We went to a wreck site and the Solitary Rock. Before the dive Pako reviewed all the hand signals that he would use to point out things. Underwater he made sure that I saw everything. His partner, Maura accompanied us taking pictures with a...

I have been diving with Pako for several years. He managed to get my wife certified- a real triumph! He is meticulous without being overbearing. He is not only an excellent dive master, he has the broadest knowledge of the dive sites in the area of any of the local dive shops . He is especially good with new divers,... More

Spent a couple of days diving with Pako. One solo and one with my wife and friends who were snorkeling. Both days were very enjoyable, with Pako's knowledge and experience making all the difference. He was able to integrate divers with snorkelers and make it a fun experience for both which is great for divers who are traveling with family... More

Went out with Pako and had a great set of dives! I had just finished all of my Open Water certification work in the classroom and pool and wanted to get started on my check-out dives. The two dives I took with Pako counted as my first two dives and he was great. Particularly since it was my first time... More
