This locally-owned dive shop has built a stellar reputation through genuine hospitality and professionalism. From the first phone call through post-dive snacks, the team demonstrates they genuinely love what they do. Reviewers consistently praise the hassle-free booking process, flexible cancellation policies, and comfortable custom-built boats equipped with shade, refreshments, and proper facilities. The crew earns particular recognition—guides like Gordon, Emily, Calypso, and Captain Carlos get called out by name for their knowledge, enthusiasm, and safety-conscious approach. The manta ray night dive stands out as a crowd favorite, with multiple reviews calling it a life-changing experience. What makes this operator special is their ability to accommodate mixed groups seamlessly, whether you're an experienced diver, returning after years away, or a nervous first-timer. Several reviewers mention feeling genuinely comfortable and safe, even during their first night dive or open ocean experience. The smaller group sizes create an intimate, family-like atmosphere that larger operations can't match, and the crew's local expertise shines through in every interaction.
Did the morning two tank dive and had a great time. The groups sizes were small, and the ratio of guides/instructors to customers was great. There were 7 people in 3 groups, two doing courses and ours doing the fun dive with 3 people. The boat was also fantastic, large and lots of space, and not cramped at all. Gordon was our guide and did a great job. Would be happy to dive with them again.
