We just finished the best scuba dive trip of our lives, thanks to Richard Barnden with Unique Ocean Expeditions. His company sure lived up to its name, as he put together a spectacular package of scuba diving in Cozumel Mexico, diving in the magical freshwater cenotes (caverns), and going snorkeling with whale sharks and giant manta rays! Richard is an award winning photographer and took some of my favorite pictures of a lifetime. Richard put together a great itinerary for us and also arranged for our hotel stay at a lovely resort in Playa del Carmen. Beside all the "work stuff," Richard is just a nice person with whom to spend time with get to know. I'm 63 and not the strongest lady in the world. As such, Richard graciously helped make my life easier by carrying my heavy tanks and helping me with my equipment when needed. I also completely trusted Richard to keep us safe with his diving skills and expertise. We are so excited about Unique Ocean Expeditions, that we already have plans to join Richard Barnden and his team in Palau in 2027 and Socorro Island in 2028. I would not hesitate to recommend Richard Barnden with Unique Ocean Expeditions to give you a once in a lifetime diving adventure!
