Comments	We had done a lot of research before arriving for our first dive trip to Cozumel, looking for a dive operation that would best fit our needs. Living Underwater more than met our expectations. The boat was fast and well equipped with no more than 6 divers. One day we had a newly certified diver, so Jeremy (the owner/operator) brought along another dive master to look after the rest of the group while he worked with the new diver and made her comfortable underwater. Both dive masters were excellent in pointing out things and very thorough in their briefing. The crew was the best we have ever experienced. They took very good care of all the divers from handling equipment to greeting each diver with a dry towel upon boarding the boat after each dive and then if needed a fleece-lined jacket, as well as water, fruit and other snacks. We would spend our surface intervals on shore, either at a beach or hotel where we could take a potty break, buy food/drink and relax before the 2nd dive. We were never rushed and could really enjoy every dive. LU picks up from different hotel docks from the cruise dock and south. LU does both South and North dive sites depending on conditions. Very safety minded, service minded, friendly and excellent operation!
