Our certified Guide

Hi, I am Omar. After discovering the fascinating underwater world with military diving, I began to be passionate about this activity until it became one of my reasons for living. I love the feeling of peace that only water can give me, the fact of "flying" in a unique environment, discovering and exploring environments that are not accessible to be reached by most.

From here, I began my career as a PADI instructor, reaching the level of PADI Master Instructor, PADI TecREC Instructor and PADI Full Cave Instructor. This gave me the opportunity to work and explore countries such as Italy, Greece, Malta, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Argentina and now Mexico where I started my new adventure founding Diving4you.
