When we returned from our 10 day trip to Cozumel, Aug 2, we moved- immediately- and I have not had internet to post about my trip other than what I posted on Texas Swamp Diver's forum from Coz. I sent the following review to Chucho Divers to use as a testimonial on their website, and thought I needed to share with my fellow cozumelholics. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. Thanks, and hope some ofyou contact them- they are a small operation, about 3 yrs old, although the owner and divemasters have many years experience in Cozumel.
"First, the videographer Miguel, of Cozumel Underwater Video
made THE ULTIMATE BEST video we have ever had made on Cozumel, or
anywhere underwater, for that matter. We waited 4 weeks for it to arrive, but once it got here all was forgiven, as it is soooo good. He is a true professional, and
took great care with special effects, editing, music, and totally
captured the spirit and beauty of Cozumel for us. We could not be
more pleased! He did a truly magnificent
job he did and we will call him on all of our trips to Cozumel! We loved his back roll shot of his fins, and the descent and ascent
views are awesome, as he shows the sky erupt on ascent, and disappear under the water on descent. We love the swim through view he chose, and the view at
the last of the dvd with my husband and myself almost looked like we
were dancing, silhouetted against the sun, while on our safety stop.
It is so cool, I can't even describe.
We can also say the same about Jesus, Pedro, Julio, and all the other
great divers and friends we met while diving with Chucho Divers July
24-30, 2009!! This crew was professional, hard-working, fun, and did
everything necessary to make sure that our group of 3 couples had the
time of our lives!!! They were always on time to greet us in the
morning, at our hotel pier, with smiles on their faces, and safety on
their minds. My husband and myself had planned the trip for us to
take with our friends, all 4 whom were new divers. Pre-planning was so
easy with Christy at the helm! She handled all arrangements
efficiently, accurately, and courteously, very professional. When we
arrived for our first dives, the crew helped with all of our gear, and
were always ready to lend a helping hand on and off the boats, piers,
and dive boat ladders. They took us to some amazing reefs and the
divemasters pointed out all the life down below, including not only my
first seahorse, but four seahorses over the course of the trip! In
many trips to Cozumel, I have never seen a seahorse, so it was very
special. We saw a huge nurse shark (maybe 2 ft snout), eel, baracuda, and all of the
beautiful tropicals you would hope to see, along with many turtles on
this trip. The snacks during surface intervals were fresh fruits and
plenty of cold water, this was delicious. They took us to a nice
beach to relax and get off the boat for a while, if we wanted. They
also took care of our gear, and we really appreciated this special
touch. All in all, it was sad to say goodbye when we left the boat
after our last dives! We want to say thank you to Christi, and
everyone at Chucho Divers for making our dream vacation a wonderful
memory that will stay with us always. Thank you, thank you, thank you
for your most wonderful service! We hope to return to Cozumel very
soon, to dive with you again and again!"
There are many great dive ops on Cozumel, but I put Christi's BlueXTSea and Chucho Divers at the top of my satisfaction list. Happy diving, all- lucky us who get to dive at Cozumel! We are blessed.
