About the Center

Diving Planet, located in Cartagena, Mexico, is a 5-star PADI and SSI dive center with 30 years of experience. It specializes in providing the best diving experiences in the Islas del Rosario, a protected national park renowned for its vibrant coral ecosystems and Caribbean marine diversity. This location, just a one-hour boat ride from the city, offers ideal diving conditions, including two-tank dives for certified divers per day and the opportunity to visit its 27 tropical islands.

Diving Planet prioritizes safety, the use of high-quality equipment, and a team of passionate PADI Instructors and Dive Masters. They offer a comprehensive range of courses, from Discover Scuba Diving for beginners to the Instructor Development Course for professionals, including Open Water Diver and Advanced Open Water. Guided snorkeling tours and special packages, such as one-night stays on the islands with multiple dives, including night dives, are also available.

Beyond diving activities, Diving Planet actively participates in the DIVE TO HEAL initiative. This initiative aims to democratize diving, having enabled over 350 individuals with disabilities to experience the freedom of a weightless world underwater. Furthermore, they are leading one of Colombia's most ambitious coral restoration projects, ensuring that each booking contributes to a more sustainable future for the oceans. The center also provides accommodation, equipment rental, a dive shop, air fills (nitrox), and airport transfers, and features multilingual staff fluent in Spanish, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Ukrainian.

What people ask before booking

Sí. Te pediremos demostrar 200 m de nado continuo (estilo libre) y 10 minutos flotando sin apoyo. No exigimos cronómetro, solo soltura en agua.

Si el centro cancela por condiciones del mar, te reasignamos sin coste extra a la siguiente fecha disponible. La decisión la toma el instructor jefe a las 7:00 del día de la salida.

Con lentillas blandas, sin problema. Si llevas gafas, ofrecemos máscaras graduadas estándar (-1 a -8 dioptrías) por 15 € de alquiler/día.

Sí, somos PADI Kids Centre. Desde los 8 años con el Bubblemaker (en piscina, hasta 2 m) y desde los 10 con el Open Water Junior.

No, tu carnet PADI/SSI es vitalicio. Sí recomendamos un curso de repaso ("Scuba Tune-Up") si llevas más de 12 meses sin bucear.

A partir de 4 personas hacemos un 10% sobre el precio del curso o salida. Para más de 10 personas (escuelas, despedidas, empresas), nos sentamos a hablar precio y logística.
