Cenote Tajma Ha
Diving this cenote
This cenote with its two routes is a great day trip for scuba divers. You can even bring along none diving friends or family, to enjoy great snorkeling.
As with most cenote tours we will meet around 8am at the dive shop to sort out scuba gear and paperwork, before heading off for our dives. Lunch is also included.
We suggest you bring a towel and a dry set of clothes. Keep in mind as in all cenotes sunscreen cosmetics and insect repellent are banned due to the conservation of the site.

Excellent dive outfit!
Liz and Andres provided a seamless, safe, and incredible dive experience. From the moment i reached out, Liz was very responsive and knowledgeable about diving in the tulum area. She was also very accommodating to all of my requests. Andres was an amazing extra pair of hands to help with equipment but also to talk to during those pesky surface intervals. If and when i am back in Tulum, I’ll definitely be diving with Jaguar Divers!

TWO gorgeous dive days with Jaguar
Liz is a fantastic dive master and guide! She is friendly and descriptive about the local environment and wildlife. We chose to dive with Liz and Jaguar Divers for 2 days, first a 2-dive boat trip out to the coast of Cozumel and a second day with 2 dives in Playa area cenotes. My husband had just finished his SCUBA open water certification and the Cozumel reef was a beautiful and exciting first day of diving for him. It was also my first drift dive, and following Liz's guidance and observing her calmness under the water helped to keep me calm as the strong current pushed us along the reef. In the cenotes her relaxed demeanor continued to be a great example to follow as we cruised quietly through the caverns. I will absolutely look up Jaguar Divers again when we return and recommend to anyone visiting along the Riviera Maya! Thank you for the great memories Liz!

Great dive shop - highly recommend
We had an awesome experience with jaguar divers/Liz! We hadn't been diving in several years so we did a refresher session in the morning then two dives in the Playa area in the afternoon. Well organized, clean and well equipped. Liz is so knowledgeable and a great guide. She went above and beyond to make our day great (and even recommended the best tacos we had all trip!)10/10 experience, highly recommend using jaguar divers!!

Got my open water license with them, amazing experience!
I did my open water diving license with Jaguar Divers and it was absolutely amazing! I started my diving license in Egypt but I didn't have time to finish it there so I decided to finish it in Mexico. I am allergic to chlorine so I could not do any pool dives and Jaguar Divers offered an option to do it in cenote which was just perfect and sooooo beautiful! Demian was very patient and nice, and it felt like I made a friend 🙂 I will be coming back to Mexico next year and cannot wait to do more dives with them and maybe even continue my certification! I definitely recommend Jaguar Divers to everyone, don't even think of any other place 🙂

Ready to book our next adventure with Jaguar Divers
Just came back from a 4-day company retreat to Cancun. One of excursion options was the ocean guided two-tank scuba diving with Jaguar Divers, which we selected due to their 5.0 rating on Google and Tripadvisor. We had a group of 14 (9 non-certified and 5 certified divers) which was probably too many for Jaguar Divers to handle in one day. Liz and Nicole did an amazing job of making sure all the non-certified divers felt comfortable in the classroom and backyard pool before hitting the ocean. Looking back after the day, I was so glab both were English speaking so there was not any issues with understanding the trainings. They were so patient fitting 14 divers with gear, working with smaller groups in the pool, getting us on the dive boat and helping us set up our tanks before our first dive. We had a couple of things go wrong at the first dive: 1) my flipper fell to the ocean floor as soon as I stepped of the back boat deck and 2) two non-certified divers quit after stepping off due to thick mustache allowing water in the mask and the other couldn't equalize ear pressure after multiple attempts. Nicole was a rockstar in grabbing my flipper and then assisting with getting it secured and then did everything she could with the other two issues before the divers finally threw in the towel and went back to the boat. Once under water the experience was a highlight of my life. We all felt so calm and remembered our training because I imagine one freak out may have shortened or ended the dive for the entire group. Our group highly recommends Jaguar Divers. Thanks Liz for sparking all our enthusiasm to become certified divers and come back for another adventure with Jaguar Divers. 🤿💙

Unforgettable experience
Liz and Maryama* are amazing guides to the cenotes. I loved every minute of the two days we spent with this dive shop, and I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore the caverns.

The best place to dive!
I've always wanted to try cenote diving but have been too afraid of the darkness (and cold 🥶). Liz was very comforting and reassuring and made me feel very comfortable throughout my two dives.I highly recommend diving with Liz and her team. They're professional every step of the way and are amazing divers so I always felt like I was learning something new.

Casa Cenote: I dived with Jaguar Divers, specifically with Michael, into the Casa Cenote.
Safety and … More Professionalism: 10/10. Michael stayed close, ensuring I was always okay. I got all the gear I needed and it felt very comfortable, safe, and exactly as you’d expect from an SDI-certified instructor and organisation.
Adventure: 10/10. Casa Cenote has some beautiful features between light and dark, interesting rock formations, little caverns, cool wildlife, and awesome mangroves which hang right above you. I also was about 1.5m from a very awake American crocodile! For someone with just Open Water certification, and only 6 dives under my belt before this, I was able to experience a very mystical, trippy/eerie environment which looked breathtaking without taking the risks of cave diving. Michael checked how I was on the first dive and then on the second took me into some interesting features which expanded on my experience by seeing the effects of a halochline and also upswells from caverns. Not only did I enjoy the dive but I felt like I was challenged and pushed in a safe way, for which I am grateful.
Guide: 10/10. Michael was incredibly hospitable, and since lunch was included we went to this local taco place and K had his suggestion of tacos. He mentored me throughout the day, didn’t rush a thing, it felt like we had all the time in the world. He was really interesting and the conversation was just as top notch as the diving. Not to mention he also took me out the way to an ATM so that I could cash. Michael also got lots of pics and videos of me throughout the dive using my GoPro and this was just out of generosity, not a formally included photography package or anything. That was very kind.
Facilities: 5/10. This is not to do with Jaguar divers as they only visit Casa Cenote and are not in control of the facilities there. However, if visiting be aware that there are not changing rooms at the cenote so you must be comfortable changing in and out of diving gear by the car. I recommend coming wearing swimming clothes underneath and being comfortable changing under a towel. As a guy this was fine for me. There is also no tap, I recommend bringing hand sanitizer and water shoes for a more comfortable experience visiting the toilet.
*note it costs MXN $100 to use a GoPro, which I highly recommend as I came away with astonishing footage.
Overall: 10/10. Would love to dive again with Jaguar divers if I return to Playa del Carmen. -
Did three days of Cenote diving and one day bull sharks/reef with Jaguar Divers.
I can only recommend … More Liz and her team, especially if it's your first time going into this kind of environment. They have a strong focus on safety the entire way with a very exhaustive briefing! We felt extremely well taken care of! -
I got my advance adventure dive certification over the past three days and had a great experience. I … More wanted to improve and hone skills beyond a recreational dive on vacation. Liz who owns Jaguar divers switched up my plan to accommodate my friend and Micheal, my instructor, was patient with advice after every dive and setting up exercises/circuits. I hope to return and enjoy the reef, cenotes, and sharks again!
