I found Manta Raya Divers through Trip Advisor as I was looking for an alternative for a cruise excursion for Cozumel instead of booking through the cruise line. After reading all the excellent reviews here, we booked easily with Fernando through email and my whole party of 7 thought I was a genius for finding such a stellar excursion. Fernando... more

My family spent a lovely morning snorkeling with them. Fernando was easy to reach via emails. We exchanged plenty of emails prior to the trip, and he was very clear about the directions to the marina and the details about the trip. I did not need to prepay or make a deposit either. We took a taxi to the marina,... more

Diving and snorkeling with Manta Raya Divers is always an extraordinary experience. Through the years I have been aboard with divers, snorklers and free divers. Every trip is different depending on the weather and experience level of the passengers. I have been on 200+ dives with Fernando and Sammy and even weathered a hurricane with their families. They are wonderful... more

I have been scuba diving in Cozumel for 10 years and always return to Fernando Gonzalez with Manta Raya Divers. If you are looking for a small boat which will take to you to locations based on your experience level, allow you to dive to your limits, while providing a safe environment then Manta Raya Divers is for you. I... more

We didn't get to actually go snorkeling with Fernando (although he met us at the boat prior to going), but we went with his crew. Super nice guys and very helpful! They provided equipment, drinks, and sandwiches. We went to 3 reefs, and spent ample time at each. They were good about taking us to places where we weren't with... more

My boyfriend and I went snorkeling with this company and it was the best experience I have ever had. We did not use Fernando because he was out of town but we went with his crew Sammy and Claudio. We did not want to go on the cruise excursions and I am glad that we didn’t! The kindness of the... more

My husband and I booked a snorkeling excursion with Manta Raya Divers. What a wonderful experience! Fernando and Sammy are great! We have grown tired of the large cruise ship excursions and decided to book an independent tour. We are so glad we did! The personal attention and the length of the snorkeling experience were great! Fernando is an experienced... more

We were in Cozumel in March 2008 and used Manta Raya Divers for our shore excursion. While two of us had some dive experience, for my two 13 year olds, it was their first time so we booked a "Discover Scuba Class" with Manta Raya. Fernando was our dive master and he did a fantastic job. One of my sons... more

We have been diving with Mantaraya Divers and their superb divemaster, Fernando Gonzalez, for 12 years. We have tried other dive operations on Cozumel over the years just to see what the competition was like and Fernando always tops the list. First and foremost Fernando is very friendly and accommodating to all levels of divers. He is especially good with... more
