BEHIND THE MASK
IVAN GARCIA
With more than 15 years of experience in open water diving, free diving and at least ten years of experience in cave diving, I am a highly qualified diver, with the certifications of “apnea”, “full cave diver” and “cavern dive master”. I also have specialties in Photography, DPV and MultiStage. I have participated in explorations, underwater photo and video productions, I have participated in photo exhibitions in the Riviera Maya and Mexico City, I have been a cavern dive guide for 10 years and safety has always been my top priority, I pride myself in following rigorous safety protocols in all my dives.
In addition to my diving experience, underwater photography is my specialty. I have captured stunning images of the most beautiful and unreal underwater landscapes. I firmly believe that the beauty of the underwater environment should be shared and appreciated, and I find great satisfaction in transmitting my love for the underwater world through photography.
My passion for diving goes beyond personal exploration. I enjoy the opportunity to share my knowledge and experiences with other divers and diving enthusiasts. I love to inspire others and pass on my love for the underwater environment, whether through lectures, training or simply sharing amazing dives. Outreach and conservation are core values for me, and I am always looking for ways to promote awareness and respect for the oceans and its inhabitants.

I started diving when I was 13 years old, fortunately I had a very strong mother who brought out the best in me, since then I continued diving and discovering the underwater diversity, the different diving styles along with the required skills and its multiple characters, It was when I had the opportunity to know the Riviera Maya about all its cenotes, I fell in love with the caves and all its mysteries, today I have 10 years being a professional technical diving both as an instructor and as a student, passionate about cave diving and the people I have met along the way.
I love to help to learn, I am passionate about dealing with new people and different stories to help them and help me grow, both teaching and guiding in the water are my most pleasant and useful moments, show how wonderful this country is or see the face of someone who manages to understand something deep is always satisfying. I believe I have the ability to lead a great team and make many people live unique experiences.
