    Papa Hog's Scuba Emporium is owned and operated by Mike and Margaret Gerus, originally from Ontario, Canada.  Mike has been a diver for over 30 years and actively involved in the diving business for 28 years. He worked in the Florida diving industry and owned a string of dive shops in southern Ontario. Mike is the National Training Director for IDEA Canada,  Course Director for NAUI, and Instructor with PADI.

     Margaret had been in the travel business for 14 years when she met Mike. "I took his diving course," said Margaret with an impish grin, "and fell in love with the teacher."  She also fell in love with diving and has been working in the diving business for the last 16 years. Margaret is a Scuba Instructor with PADI and holds Staff Instructor status with NAUI and IDEA Canada.  Margaret comes highly recommended by many experienced divers, as their instructor of choice.

     Early in 1998 Mike and Margaret decided Papa Hog's needed some major upgrading. Besides purchasing new motors for the boats and a new face lift for the dive shop. They have opened a new restaurant / bar called the Hog Town Cafe as well as a retail store called Mama Hogs Scuba Boutique. Both are located across the street from the dive shop. mmdog.jpg (22962 bytes)

     Today, with 100+ dive shops on the island, Papa Hog's has grown to become one of the larger and more popular dive operations in Cozumel. Currently Papa Hog's has 7 six-pack fast boats and one 48 ft. eighteen passenger boat.

 

 

Even with all this growth Papa Hog's continues to offer a small dive shop atmosphere with great service and no cattle boats. Their staff of divemasters, are some of the finest you'll find in Cozumel. Come and enjoy a dive with us. pier.jpg (12342 bytes)
