Our Team.
Our team is small but extremely passionate. Every member of our team undergoes extensive training to provide you with a safe, fun, and unique experience.
Max
Instructor and owner
Max has been teaching diving since 2014 and has over 700 certifications under his belt. Max's passion for diving allows him to create an unbeatable learning environment. He specialises in teaching beginners and nervous swimmers how to dive.
Olivia
Manager and DMT
Olivia has been living on Caye Caulker since 2019, having completed her rescue course here, and is actively involved in several marine conservation projects in Belize. She will be managing Sunrise, taking bookings and making sure everything runs smoothly. She also occasionally makes an appearance on a dive!
DMT
Pedro is our newest DMT who you may also meet when you first arrive at Sunrise Scuba. He is a passionate diver and is currently working his way up to becoming a Tour Guide and Divemaster. He also makes a mean lionfish ceviche and rum punch!
Pablo
Instructor
Pedro
Pablo is a veteran of the dive industry! Having completed his IDC in 2007, he has certified over 2000 new divers! Pablo is known for his jovial personality, but when it comes to teaching, you will struggle to find a calmer and more patient instructor in the country. If he isn't teaching a course, Pablo may even be your boat captain for the day, ensuring you arrive at the sites safely and having a lot of fun!
George/Smiley
Deck hand
Smiley is the baby of the Sunrise family, and after two minutes of talking to him, you will soon realize where he gets his nickname from. George is responsible for keeping everyone on the boat in as high spirits as him, helping you get into your equipment on the boat, and being the boat's DJ! George is working his way up to becoming a Divemaster and Tour Guide so he can keep the smiles going underwater too!
