Pro Dive Mexico adds dive computers to their product portfolio
Pro Dive Mexico, a PADI 5-Star Dive Resort founded in 2003 and one of the most established and recognized IDC & CDC Centers in Latin America located at several 4* and 5* Resorts along the Riviera Maya and in Cozumel, have announced the addition of Dive Computers to their wide array of products.
Cressi Leonardo Dive Computers can be rented at all ten of Pro Dive Mexico’s base locations along the Riviera Maya & Cozumel, making the company the first dive operator in the Mexican Caribbean to provide this kind of equipment to their customers.
Regarding the Leonardo, Cressi themselves say that “the Leonardo is the first and only dive computer designed and built completely by Cressi. An elegant expression of simple, functional design, the Leonardo is a must-have for divers entering the sport and those who ‘just want to dive’.
“A single button interface makes it effortless to program Air, Nitrox and Gauge modes the first time a diver picks the computer up, and an edge-to-edge, high-definition screen gives large numerical displays in a computer that is still compact and travel-friendly.
“The clearly visible battery life indicator and distinct audible alarms deliver critical information as well as peace-of-mind during the dive.
“The Leonardo can also be fully re-set after each use, making it an excellent choice for rental departments.”
“Students who participate in Pro Dive Mexico´s Open Water Diver courses will be provided with the choice of learning to plan their dives by using either a dive computer (their own or rental) or tables. Those who decide to use a dive computer throughout their course do not need to learn the Table/eRDPml, hence, can refrain from doing the extra RDP Quiz and Exam,” adds Angel Navarro, one of Pro Dive Mexico’s permanent Platinum Course Directors.
Everything under one roof, Pro Dive Mexico provides tailor-made world-class experiences, including dive packages, snorkeling safaris, accommodation in coveted 4 and 5 star resorts along the Riviera Maya and in Cozumel at preferred rates, airport shuttles and combo options to explore the highlights of the Yucatan, such as Cenotes, Cozumel Marine Park, Bull Sharks, Wrecks, Whale Shark, as well as world heritage sites.

Dive Worldwide Announces Bite-Back as its Charity of the Year
Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
