Pro Dive Mexico goes International
Pro Dive Mexico announces Pro Dive Dominican Republic
Pro Dive Mexico, one of Latin America´s most established and fastest growing PADI 5 Star Dive Resorts and recognized Career Develop Centers, has announced the acquisition of their first dive center outside of Mexico.
As of October 1st 2015, Pro Dive will be the official watersports and scuba services provider for the Occidental Grand Punta Cana, a popular All-Inclusive resort located on the spectacular Bavaro Beach, one of the best beaches in Punta Cana. The Occidental Grand Punta Cana features a quiet atmosphere and Spanish-style architecture surrounded by tropical gardens.
Renowned for its natural beauty, lush tropical scenery, rich wildlife, long white sandy beaches, beautiful marine parks, drop-off´s and coral reefs in excellent condition, dozens of wrecks, as well as an extensive network of freshwater caves and caverns, the Dominican Republic is an ideal destination for families and couples who seek to combine relaxation with watersports activities.
“Not only does this expansion imply a perfect addition to our varied product portfolio, it means a real enhancement and cultural gain for Pro Dive International. We would like to invite you to enjoy brand new dive sites in paradise islands like Saona and Catalina, wreck diving in Punta Cana, humpback whale watching near Samana, and the discovery of caverns and caves in the pristine Dominican jungle. Great hotel rates for our hotel location Occidental Grand Punta Cana in Bavaro are available, and can be booked with Pro Dive directly or with our dive travel agencies from October 1st. We are still in the process of fine-tuning some of our excursions and packages; however, most of our products can already be purchased,” says Markus Fleischmann, CEO and founder of Pro Dive Mexico, Pro Dive Dominican Republic and Pro Dive International.
Everything under one roof, Pro Dive International provides tailor-made world-class dive and snorkeling experiences and accommodation in coveted 4 and 5 star resorts along the Riviera Maya & Cozumel in Mexico, and in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic at preferred rates. Also provided are airport shuttles and combo options to explore the highlights of the Yucatan Peninsula, such as whale shark and sailfish safaris, cenotes, Cozumel Marine Park, bull sharks, wrecks, and world heritage sites. Furthermore, Pro Dive Mexico features the VIP Stay & Dive concept ULTIMATE DIVE EXPERIENCE at Occidental Allegro Cozumel, unique in the Caribbean.
