Amazing first time scuba diving experience! - We recently had the incredible opportunity to experience scuba diving with Ocean Spirit! We did Discover Scuba Diving. It was the very first time for the whole family with three teenagers, and it was nothing short of amazing! We were all excited but admittedly a bit nervous about what to expect underwater. Our dive instructors Nando & Yo were incredibly professional, patient, and friendly, making us feel at ease right from the start. They took the time to explain the basics of diving and ensured that everyone, from the youngest teen to the oldest adult, was comfortable with the gear and techniques before entering the water. This preparation made a huge difference in making us feel secure and helped us feel ready to explore. The moment we descended into the water, all our worries disappeared. The underwater world was like nothing we’d ever imagined—vibrant coral reefs, schoal of fish, and the serene quiet of the ocean enveloped us. Watching our teenagers' faces light up when they saw colorful fish swimming together was priceless. It was such an exciting experience and we found ourselves laughing and sharing the excitement of seeing marine life for the first time. The dive was an experience! My husband and I were thrilled to share something so unique with our teens, and they absolutely loved it. It’s not often that we find activities that appeal to all ages, but this one brought us closer together in ways we never expected. If you're considering trying scuba diving as a family, I highly recommend Ocean Spirit. It’s an adventure that provides a perfect mix of adrenaline and tranquility, and it’s one that we will cherish forever. We can’t wait to dive again!

Excellent Dive, Exceptional Crew! - Our diving experience was amazing—we saw everything! The crew was outstanding, and we couldn't have asked for more. They took the time to assess our varying skills and comfort levels, and for the more nervous members, they arranged one-on-one instruction to ensure a calm and smooth experience.We initially booked with a different company, but their service was lacking in organization and consideration for our different abilities. Switching to this team was the best decision—they were extremely friendly, professional, and made the dive experience perfectly tailored to our group. They even captured some beautiful family photos underwater, which was an extra special touch. Big thanks to Bobby and Berno for making this an unforgettable adventure!

Great experience for 1st time scuba diving - Amazing experience that is very well explained, educated and tested in a safe environment. Providing you with great confidence to perform your first scuba dive experience. Groups of 2 people per instructor and a guided experience in a beautiful part of the island. Highly recommended.

Amazing experience! A must do. - This experience was one in a lifetime. Our whole family, including a 17 and 13 year old, had never been scuba diving before. I was quite nervous but the guys looked after us all with such patience. They kitted us out with equipment and took us across the road to the sea to learn how to use everything. Following that we took a short boat ride out through the most amazing blue water to a coral reef in the ocean. The water was so clear and the fish were amazing. There were lots of varieties of fish including lion fish and huge conga eels. Amazing experience. Thanks so much to the 4 guys who dived with us.

Unforgettable! - I had the chance to perform my baptism with Nando who knew how to put me in confidence. This discovery dive meeting rays, turtle and multicolored fish was so magical that I decided, a few days later, to pass my PADI Open Water certification so that I could relive such moments. I don't regret choosing this center. The team is warm, very professional, the equipment at the top, and the emphasis is on safety so that everything goes as well as possible. So feel free to go there for an unforgettable experience.

Amazing Staff and Amazing Dive - Perfect!!! - Amazing dive we saw everything! The staff were incredible we couldn't have asked for more, they assessed different skill and nerve levels and even gave the nervous members one on one instructors and made everything really gentle, calm and easy. We originally had booked with another company but felt they were unorganised and weren't very considerate or didn't acknowledge our differing abilities so we came to these guys and they were perfect, they even took some family pictures for us underwater. They are extraordinarily friendly and tailored the dive to us perfectly while being a lot of fun. Shout outs to Bobby and Berno! Would give more stars if I could!!!
