Welcome SCUBA divers!

Casa Carolina is a NAUI Dream Resort where all levels of diving education are available, from resort courses through Instructor Training. Bob Villier, a NAUI Instructor Trainer, has been diving since the 1960’s. When he first came to Xcalak in 1994, he knew his search for the dive site of his dreams had ended. Since then, creating the ideal resort in this mostly undiscovered setting has been his goal. Whether you’re interested in continuing your diving education or just recreational diving in these undisturbed, pristine blue waters, you’ll find Bob ready to tailor your diving experience to suit your level of skill and interest. In Xcalak, you never have to worry about diving with a large crowd. Each dive is a personal experience.
