In my experience the soccer boots "phantom gx"are one of the best soccer boots in the market. I…read morereally like these boots because are very comfortable, and the turning tech help to your knees don't get injured and that's what I like of product.

This is a sporting goods chain in Mexico that's been around since 1999. They have 2 stores in the…read moreLa Isla Shopping Mall (the one located in the new part of the mall is very large and has a better selection). They carry all the major brands of sneakers of every kind, as well as clothing and sports equipment. I needed a pair of new running shoes and I was able to find a comfortable pair at a great price. I would recommend this store if you need something that you forgot to pack.

We came here to visit the sea turtle sanctuary as part of our tour through Cancun adventures…read more The dive center itself is cute. They had bathrooms with showers as well as outdoor showers. I did not appreciate the requirement to wear a life jacket in shallow water to snorkel with the turtles. The amount of people in the snorkeling areas was way too much. People were kicking up sand, flailing in the water and pushing people (me) to get in front of where any turtles were. It was extremely disappointing. The only reasons I got any photos was because I have a GoPro on a stick. I would NOT do the turtle thing again. I would however go scuba diving. That seemed like they took out small groups on small boats so it wouldn't be overcrowded.

This is an efficiently-run dive operation, and also offers a lot of group snorkeling opportunities…read more We dove with ADS through Blue Experience Diving, and we were pleased with the facility and the dive sites offered. The boats are small, with room for 8 or 9 divers. Back roll entries are required, as these boats aren't large enough for a dive platform. The boat captains were very good and able to deal with both calm and rough water efficiently. They also helped carry gear when needed, and helped divers deal with gear as they got on and off the boats. I observed ADS dive staff working with student divers, and they seemed patient and thorough (I'm a dive instructor myself, so I can recognize when other dive pros are doing a good job). Safety was a high priority. Overall, a great experience and we were glad to have a chance to dive with Blue Experience Diving and the Akumal Dive Shop.

Planning a vacation for 11 friends is never easy, esp if you're the one planning the activities…read more Sparing details, I'll just say that Aramis at Akumal Bay Dive Center helped me plan around the wants/needs/indecisiveness of my fickle crew. He was very responsive to my many emails and provided for us a great experience and hooked us up with one of the best dive masters I've had the pleasure of diving with, Mauro! Four of us dove and on the OW dive, I was recovering from a night of "revenge", and couldn't make it to the 2nd tank. One of my crewmates was new to diving and Mauro was so extremely patient, helping her with her bouyancy and breathing. In the ocean, there wasn't much to see other than some really cool turtles, sad really. But the Dos Ojos dive was as Aramis promised, amazing! I wasn't planning on doing the caverns but I'm so glad we did. If you're serious about ocean diving and seeing marine life, head to Cozumel. Much more to see there. Ask for Mauro :)

Alex (from Italy), our dive instructor, was superb. Took the four of us out and we got to scuba…read morefor 40 minutes. Helped one of us who got seasick... super understanding. For all of us it was the first time ever to scuba dive and it was wonderful. After initial nervousness, super easy and thrilling. The Center was very professional but laid back. I had to go up and ask where we should pay! Prices are posted- $95 USD for scuba lesson and 40 min dive. They are right on the beach. Ignore all the men in white shirts (why is hustling always a guy thing?) trying to get you to pay for snorkels and tours. Just email or go straight to the Dive Center.
