Great refresher for new certified divers - This was our 2nd time diving as certified divers. Our instructor Chad did a great job in holding back a little and having us do the steps ourselves. It helped us to remember what to do. You can’t learn anything if someone always does it for you. Of course he still double checked our work before heading out so we always felt safe and in good hands. He and captain Jim kept us safe the entire dive. Would recommend this company for diving anytime.

Outstanding Excursion!! - My wife, grandson and I went on this dive today. My wife and I have not dove in over 10 years and my grandson who just turned 18 has never dove. Chris and the team did an outstanding job making this a fun, exciting and safe adventure. I highly recommend this scuba excursion!

Worth It - Perfect adventure for our honeymoon. We saw all kinds of tropical fish, sea urchins, and a sea star. We felt very comfortable and had a blast the entire time. The staff are incredibly kind and patient. Would recommend!

Great for beginners! - Great experience for me and my husband! He’s never dove before so Jim was super helpful with helping him learn the basics on the first dive and then joining the rest of the group for the second dive. Saw my first sea turtle while diving so I’d say a huge success! Josh was amazing in pointing out all the things he saw and being a super awesome guide!

And experience for life, sailing alongside 50 dolphins - All staff and captain were very kind and helpful. They were very knowledgeable in this industry and the Polynesian culture. during the trip we encountered numerous whales, and about 50 dolphins swimming alongside our boat, I need to pray to the island God for this! 100% satisfied

Not for everyone - It's not for everyone. My left ear popped with a sharp pain due to pressure. But still, I've experienced the feeling to be actually underwater 👍👍

Combo beginner and certified group excursion to horseshoe reef. Much time waiting for them to teach beginners. - If you are certified do not pick the combo beginner/certified excursion. You will end up wasting much of your day waiting for them to teach their class to the beginners. What was supposed to be a couple hour trip ended up being 5 hours for two short dives. Our group of 3 all came up with over 1500 psi left in our tanks on both dives. Very short bottom time. Wouldn’t recommend this for certified divers.

Beginner Nightmare - Careful with this place if you are a new diver. If you make even a single mistake with the form you fill out they will not tell you about it till you are already through orientation, the car ride to the dock, or the briefing. I put a nasal allergy on the form and that requires a doctors note. Which is all fine well and good, but they didn't check that till I was basically about to ship out. Unable to dive, no time to reschedule, and they refused refund for a simple mistake. Also, beginners can't go if conditions are not ideal, so be prepared to be rescheduled. I tried for Friday morning, got rescheduled to Friday afternoon because they were too full. Showed up and went through everything including the orientation video and got rescheduled to Monday morning. Another group on Friday got rescheduled from the previous Monday to the Friday that I was also on and they had to cancel because they flew the next day and had no chances to reschedule. Final remark. The manager is not a nice lady.
