Pro Dive Mexico awarded Certificate of Excellence 2016 by Beneath the Sea
Pro Dive International has announced that it has been awarded the Beneath the Sea Certificate of Excellence for the second consecutive year in honor of their continued efforts and contribution towards the marine environment.
Celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, Beneath the Sea is the largest dive, travel and international oceans exhibition in America, hosting more than 400 exhibitors, 70 workshops and seminars and a film festival.
The annual 3-day event is held at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in New Jersey, only 10 minutes from New York City.
“The protection of our underwater world has been one of Pro Dive International’s major concerns for decades. We put great efforts in particular into shark conservation, in order to protect the top of the food chain that keeps the ocean’s ecosystem healthy and balanced. Not only do we support non-profit organizations internationally, like SHARKANGELS and SHARKS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, but also actively right in front of our door SAVING OUR SHARKS – a local project focusing on the protection of bull sharks in the Mexican Riviera Maya,” says Markus Fleischmann, CEO and founder of Pro Dive International.
Renowned for excellent quality in providing first class adventures including diving in the CENOTES, with BULL SHARKS, at WRECKS & FAMOUS WALLS at COZUMEL, SAONA & CATALINA islands, as well as Safaris with WHALE SHARKS, SAILFISH & HUMPBACK WHALES, Pro Dive International, founded in 2003, is the official onsite water sports service provider for several 4-5* RESORTS along the RIVIERA MAYA & COZUMEL/ MEXICO and in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

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.
