OUR MISSION
At Sony Dive Center, we offer mindful scuba diving in Taganga (Santa Marta), with trips to Tayrona National Park – in small groups for people who want to feel safe, calm, and fully present underwater. We combine PADI-quality training with a premium, human approach: clear communication, patient instructors, and a relaxed pace that helps beginners and certified divers dive with confidence. Beyond diving, we lead by example with environmental education and responsible practices – because ocean therapy only makes sense if we protect the ocean.

Me and friend had the most amazing experience at Sony Dive Center! We took the PADI Open water certificat and we had the nicest instructor Mario. He was very calm, patient and it was obvious he is an experienced diver. They do the dives in small groups, which were nice and we felt very safe and in good hands! The atmosphere at the divecenter and on the boat on the way to dives were excellent! Everybody in the staff were also super nice, and the place were easy and very quick to communicate with through WhatsApp! We also loved the surface refreshments we got between the dives🤩 We would highly recommend this place for your first or further dive education!

Excelente servicio , muy pero muy profesionales . Vimos muchas opciones pero esta empresa fue la mejor en todo los aspectos! Súper mega recomendados David WTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an excellent and really enjoyable double dive with Sony Dive centre yesterday. Sony was quick, clear and responsive in arranging the dive via WhatsApp. The dive sites around Tayrona were beautiful with healthy coral and a really good range of marine life - sea horses, moray eels, big shoals of mackerel. Most importantly, the instructor Mario and team were lovely, professional and passionate about what they do, making me and my teenage son feel very comfortable. Also very good value. Highly recommended.
