Osman Gomez
PADI Divemaster # 69150
Osman joined our team at Turquoise Bay as a Divemaster
after working for many years as a boat captain and Divemaster at Coco View
Resort. He is an expert at finding marine life underwater and has great
stories to share during surface intervals. He is also our gear maintenance
guru!
Bilingual; English Spanish
Customer comment:
Just a quick note to let you know that
during our recent trip to Roatan that the service provided by the
staff and in particular Osman was superb, he truly is a valuable
asset to your operation.
Osman clearly is highly experienced as demonstrated by how he served
the needs of both experienced and novice divers alike, it was truly
a pleasure to dive with him.
I have over 25 years diving experience and have dove with many, many
operations in the Caribbean so I have some basis of comparison for
my observations.
Please pass along our thanks to him and all of the staff at Subway.
