Their staff are all instructors and love diving Grand Cayman with a passion. Divetech has a full service shore diving shop at Lighthouse Point Dive Resort with beautiful shallow reefs and awesome advanced canyons, swim throughs and deep walls to explore. My kids from 8 years old and up had life changing scuba diving adventures with Divetech staff all week while the adults were out on the boat dives. ]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2016 04:48:41 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=104 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=104 We have been to Dive Grenada on a number of occasions. They are the only people that we would trust to teach our teenager, who had a great time and is now fully certified. The kit is always in good condition, the boat is never too full - they limit the number of divers to way below the boat's capacity and the number of staff as I think they'd rather give people a great experience than try and turn a bigger profit! The dive sites are very varied and the dive leaders are experienced, professional, courteous and really nice people to be around. Coming here is always a very happy experience for us. ]]> Mon, 26 Jan 2015 14:55:16 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=103 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=103 Dive Grenada are an Award Winning PADI 5* Dive Center in Grenada that really do go that extra mile to achieve excellence in every part of the diving operation in Grenada. Their feedback on Tripadvisor really does say it all. They are centrally located on the famous Grand Anse beach so the majority of dive sites are only 10 - 15 minutes away. If you want a small operation that takes a maximum of eight divers per trip then you really should try Dive Grenada. ]]> Sat, 24 Jan 2015 18:22:34 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=81 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=81 I would thoroughly recommend this dive outlet for their efficiency and service. They were helpful welcoming and very professional. Like many places these days the dive shop itself is quite small unlike their boat which was spacious and very easy to dive from. I think in a perfect world bigger wash up facility is the only thing I can think of so far. Also was unlucky to get on a boat with students but I can't really expect that they would send out two boats I suppose. I am diving with them again tomorrow and hope that the sun stays out for the rest of my day. ]]> Thu, 04 Sep 2014 19:16:06 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=80 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=80 Best of the best here. Went out for four dives with Tadd. They made it easy and fun, loved that their guys carried the heavy gear the short walk across the beach to the boat for us and back. Everything was executed flawlessly both days, the drop off in the water, pick up, tons of life including a turtle on BOTH dives, swam by at our safety stop to check us out, what an experience. Lobsters, an eel, shrimp, trigger fish, big angels, and on and on. Really enjoyed the company, my fellow divers attracted to the best shop on the Riviera Maya according to Trip Advisor. Felt very safe and had the feel of a high end shop with competitive rates - so a very high value in my opinion. Safety and doing things by the book while having fun is important at Wetset in my opinion. ]]> Sat, 07 Sep 2013 22:50:22 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=79 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=79 It was nice to meet Don (hopefully you will get to hear him speak in local its very funny) who was very welcoming and easy going. Thats how I started in diving and so warmed to this original style of diving for me. Based in falmouth I would say is no better or worse for topography on the actual diving quality and you just have to accept that topography isn't all that. You will find good schools of fish despite the toursit best efforts to eat them all. The waters here in the south seem to be a bit calmer if only because the dive sites are a bit closer perhaps. We did Pillars and Blacks among other sites and I have never ever seen so many lobster on a single dive in my life. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending you dive with Don and Xtreme. ]]> Thu, 15 Aug 2013 21:30:42 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=78 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=78 I was pleased they ordered and got delivered the black tip reef shark ! Indigo Divers welcomed me onto their boat from Jolly Harbour dock. I had my own equipment just needed weights. Got a full and detailed briefing of the boat and entry methods employed and also getting back on as Antigua can get choppy. I also liked the fact the boat captain stays on board. This is a great safety feature and I liked this fact though its difficult to argue that someone will run off with the boat otherwise - still it helps and allows you to be picked up if need be. I felt very comfortable with shade good refreshment and space on board the well maintained dive boat. If there was a negative it was just the fact that there was no shop to wash the gear down though you can wash it down in the Crows Nest facility. You can't have everything AND black tip reef sharks and I would recommend Indigo Divers fully. ]]> Thu, 15 Aug 2013 20:14:37 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=71 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=71 I went diving on this boat today and Alvin the divemaster showed us the underwater world. The staff were attentive polite and very friendly. We got a boat briefing and dive site briefing. There was a course going on at the time which did not limit the good dives we did. I would use them again and recommend them to anyone. 2 tanks with my own equipment and marine park fee was 89 USD including the pickup. My only issue and this is not something they can do much about is if your resort is far away it will take a while to get there. They don't pick up by boat. Food at lunch time water and juice on-board (no coffee) and the boat is well catered for with oxygen and first aid kit etc good ladders for getting back in and space. They don't have a dive shop per-se but this is not an issue normally. Though for a course I don't know where you will study. I would also add that you get water or juice on the boat and we had lasagne which was a real treat. The other operators dont have as nice food. ]]> Fri, 23 Nov 2012 01:09:16 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=70 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=70 The boat needs a bit of sand in the painted floor otherwise the carpet at the back is non slip, the dive ladder also needs a briefing on - as soon as you get your weight on it it is working great, just getting a hand to it then going for your fins is the mistake I made first time ! The quality of the leading was very good (Paul and Connie great hospitality humor - Paul dives with a bow tie !) finding and explaining the fish life past what I normally am used to. They are also committed to safety first and fun second. Some small things missing for me- free or available coffee in the shop (its a decent sized hut on a beautiful beach) Also I didn't get to shower off before my lift back to resort. NOTE: This appears to be the only dive operator offering decent value transfers from Resort. I was staying at the halcyon rex in dickenson beach and ot cost 20 USD return regular cab is over 50 ! Other dive operators use regular taxis and they told me for insurance purposes they would not pick us up, that can't be right ? ]]> Sat, 28 Jul 2012 15:47:23 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=69 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=69 The way these guys operate is quite unique ! Why have a diveshop when your customers want to spend time in the sea ? Indeed this means that they are geared up to get to the cenotes and reefs alike. You should take a look at their site and find out more. They have offices based in Playa Del Carmen. If you have dived with Anna and Gerardo with their experience please register and tell us how it went for our readers. ]]> Mon, 14 Nov 2011 12:42:13 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=68 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=68 What a great time I had with Rob and Julie!!.LOTS OF super dives & cannot wait to return.. and they also have terrific accommodation at reasonable rates...GREAT VIEWS OF St Maarten too!! ]]> Mon, 17 Oct 2011 15:51:51 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=58 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=58 Mon, 30 May 2011 22:26:54 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=57 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=57 ]]> Sat, 05 Mar 2011 16:10:55 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=55 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=55 The team are experienced friendly and all demonstrate a high level of safe practice. Jolly dive may not be the slickest operators in the Carribean / Atlantic but from my experience "slick" usually means impersonal. If you want to be treated like a true dive "buddy" then get yourself down to Jolly Harbour and meet the Jolly Dive team. By the end of my stay they had me feeling like I "was" one of the team. :-) As for cost, their charges are very reasonable given the time and effort they will go to to get everyone down to the Dive Shop from anywhere on the island. I had my personal transport to and from the dive Shop driven by two people Sonya and Paul (Both of whom demonstrated ultra safe driving at all times, and believe me I know what I am talking about!! http://aditraining123.co.uk That's me by the way!!! Plug! Plug!! :-) Overall a great dive holiday spent with some great people in a great part of the world. Well recommended!!!

They are probably the best dive masters I have encountered. The briefings were precise and they kept a good eye on us. They lead the dives well and within the comfort and desires of the guests. They were very flexible and accomodated dive sites requests. I felt very safe diving with them. I would recommned Blue Water DIvers for a fantastic time underwater. ]]> Thu, 22 Apr 2010 19:11:08 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=42 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=42 Just wanted to rate the article so ignore the stars as I didnt dive with these guys, sounds like my kind of place though and I like the way they were open to giving a dive shop a go , and of all places in Costa Rica. ]]> Mon, 05 Apr 2010 19:15:49 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=39 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=39 Aquanauts bent over backwards to accommodate my last chance of diving the bianca c.

The shop by the way has great prices on diving gear stuff. But the location of west bay is fantastic. If you just want that paradise beach that is like Varadero in Cuba quality, but not size it might be even better in many ways. The diving round here is fantastic and I simply love Roatan. ]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:45:08 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=15 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=15 Thu, 30 Apr 2009 15:31:02 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=11 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=11 Thu, 16 Apr 2009 06:58:51 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=7 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=7 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 13:44:14 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=5 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=5 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 03:42:05 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=3 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=3 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 22:10:07 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=2 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=2 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 21:31:59 +0000 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=1 https://caribbean-diving.com/component/jreviews/discussions/review?Itemid=&id=1 If you have your own equipment you will enjoy some limited diving. If you don't have your own equipment you will be shocked at the water in the gauges and air jumps of 20 bar if the fills seem low ! gulp ! The boat isn't the most comfortable always stay close to your buddy. This is Cuba and it seems this is quite the norm here. For such a seemingly isolated area it isn't as you would expect under the surface. Though the reef is decent quality there was a lack of sea life the 5 days I dived there. In fact I wouldn't recommend more. The resort has good rooms and a few facilities but hopefully there will be a few folks around to chat to .There is no outside of the resort, except a long tarmac road and no transport. So you are stuck there. Get a deal which is full board to save money though as you cant choose where you eat or at least make sure to get dinner and breakfast board at the restaurant. But if you want an original location to get away from it all then here could be a good option especially if you have your own dive equipment. Don't miss the province of Pinar Del Rio and Vinales ! ]]> Sun, 25 Jan 2009 21:28:04 +0000
