DIVING TEAM
Meet Carlos Contreras, our very own underwater Grinch, hailing from Mérida, Venezuela. Since he was just a little boy, Carlos has been immersed in the world of diving, guided by his older brothers, who are also masters in the art of teaching to breathe underwater. An tireless lover of nature and underwater photography, Carlos not only captures the beauty of the ocean through his lens but has also dedicated his life to exploring its depths.
Since 1999, this diving professional has collected titles such as commercial diver, gas blender, ROV pilot, PADI Scuba Diver Trainer, SSI Advanced Instructor, and diving equipment repair technician. Carlos has taken his passion and charisma (and his Grinch fame!) to different corners of Latin America, teaching others to love the ocean as much as he does.
If you're looking for someone to guide you on your next underwater adventure with a mischievous smile and profound knowledge of the sea, Carlos is your ideal instructor. Get ready to dive into the world of diving with our resident expert and discover why, despite his nickname, he has a heart bigger than the ocean!
Italo Floridia, originating from Caracas, Venezuela, brought his love for diving to the shores of the Dominican Republic in 2014, after immersing himself in the fascinating dive sites of Mexico and Venezuela. In 2015, Italo graduated as a Dive Instructor, but that was just the beginning of his ambitious underwater journey, aiming to reach the pinnacle of his diving career. With effort and dedication, he now shines as an Assistant Instructor Trainer in SSI and a Technical Cave Diving Instructor at IATND.
What truly makes his heart beat faster are the specialties of Technical Diving and Cave Diving. And, as if that weren't enough, today he is living his dream of staying underwater, where he will surely share with you everything he has learned. His cheerful and charismatic personality guarantees that your experience with Shark Dominican Divers will be filled with laughter and fun moments.

At Shark Dominican Divers, even our adventurous spirit has four legs and a friendly bark. Loko, our 4-year-old French Bulldog, is the most charismatic and furry member of our team. Although he doesn't dive into the depths, his adventurous spirit and love for life perfectly reflect the passion and enthusiasm we put into every underwater adventure.
Like our inspiring canine, Loko reminds us daily of the importance of approaching each new challenge with a wagging tail and an attitude that knows no bounds. He embodies the heart and soul of our team, keeping us united and motivated.
Although Loko prefers to keep his paws on solid ground and close to his water bowl, his presence is as vital to us as the air in our tanks. He is the guardian of our base, ensuring that every piece of equipment is ready and every heart is filled with courage before plunging into the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea.
