Dale did a great job making us feel safe and prepared.
Amazing experience so glad we booked this first time ever scuba diving will absolutely book again if I'm ever back in San Juan
Amazing job by Paco for my first dive experience!
Wonderful learning experience for people who are new to scuba diving
Anthony was wonderful scuba instructor. Very patient with me as beginner.
The guides are awesome! They’re all very friendly and informative. They take their time teaching you each skill and make sure everyone knows what they’re doing before you dive! Great experience! We would do it again!
Anthony was absolutely fantastic. Made it a gorgeous experience and was very calm with my wife who was having some issues at first. 10/10 would recommend!
Anthony was our tour guide and he did a great job with teaching us the basics of diving and ensuring we had a safe and fun experience. He pointed out things to look at along the way. Definitely recommend this for your first diving experience!
Anthony took very good care of us! He was patient and kind. It was our first time scuba diving and Anthony really eased into it as we were a bit afraid. This experience was Top Notch I would do it again. A great way to spend some time in Puerto Rico!
The pickup was simple and easy and it was a short drive. The “class” was short and easy to understand, but personally it was harder to understand directions and the tips they show you when we were practicing in the water. It’s difficult to see the hand signals underwater and to know when they’re telling you to watch them and when they’re wanting you to do it. I went out for the actual tour a little unsure about some of them for that reason. But the tour itself was great and everything came easily when we were actually doing it. We would have appreciated seeing more sea life but there was rain that passed through shortly before so it may have been weather related. Our dive was about 25 minutes, which used about all the air we had before the caution zone, but it would have been fun to be out for longer. The instructors were very nice, there was a woman in me and my wife’s group who getting too overwhelmed and said she would stand it out so we could go, and the instructor gently pushed her to face it and had his hand on her tank the whole time, guiding her with him. She was super happy about it at the end and was really glad he pushed her. Overall a very good time and something that I would 100% do again
Dale and Alexis were awesome we had an amazing time!
Dale and Alexis were fantastic! My husband and I were first timers. Dale was very patient with my nervousness and allowed me to hold his hand while diving. My husband, on the other hand, caught the scuba bug early and didn't need any assistance. We saw lots of sea creatures in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend Scuba Dogs for your first snorkeling experience!
Dale and Alexis did an awesome job. Swam right with the people that were uncomfortable or nervous and eased them into it step by step until everyone was having a great time. People that were experienced or comfortable were able to move freely within the group. Truly a great experience for people of all skill levels and water abilities. Should be able to at least swim though! Thank you, Dale and Alexis, for an awesome time. Also can't forget Paco for a great tour and pick up experience even though we weren't in his group! Thanks!
AMAZING I was so scared but Alexis and Dale reassured me so much that I was able to actually dive and I enjoyed the experience SO SO MUCH.
Dale and Alexis were incredible. He held my hand and guided me the while we scubad ans Alexis helped me to learn rhe skills needed to scuba
Very experienced instructor. Really helped first timer scuba diver. Fun family time
It was such a good experience for our entire family! They catered so well to each of my individual children and we’re so patient with all of us! We had such a good experience, especially for my kids first time diving!
The scuba diving was amazing, our guide Anthony was patient and taught the group very well the safety, and helped us to relax and enjoy the dive. Would definitely travel back again to dive.
The scuba diving experience was amazing they where very knowledgeable made instructions very clear and simple Marcos was great.

Saw a turtle!! Anthony was super kind and patient for my wife and i’s first time! 5 starts! Sad that it was cloudy but a cool experience! Not sure if the delay on our bus caused a short time but still, very very cool!
Great experience! My instructor Anthony was wonderful. Very patient for beginners. 10/10 would recommend.

Dale, the senior instructor, was an amazing instructor! He was funny, patient, and made the experience a 10/10! Three hour experience, worth it!
10/10 Dale is the best and made it way less scary yayayay
Great guide and dive. Fun experience with my sons.
Dale was an awesome guide and a great teacher. He made it fun and a real experience other places make it like you are in school, Dale made the learning fun and made sure everyone was safe!
Dale was very nice, patient and was checking on us all the time.
Great experience! Thank you Dale
Dale was amazing! He was there to guide us and keep us safe. Would love to do it again.
Awesome experience, instructors were great, knowledgeable and friendly, would definitely book again
Dale was awesome! First time scuba diving and it was a great experience. I plan on getting certified!
This experience was amazing!!! I highly recommend. Dale has been scuba instructing for 1500 trips or something. We had Paco as an instructor and he held my friends hand the whole time. If you have a condition that might prevent you from scuba diving you can get evaluated by your own physician and get signed off to scuba dive ahead. I have adhd and anxiety and I had an amazing experience and my doctor told me what to watch out for so I felt extra prepared.
Guide was incredibly patient with me
Great experience. The guides were amazing. Especially Paco. Very patient and friendly.
Dale was fantastic. Did a great job with our first time dive kids and made for a great family experience. Thank you!!
Pretty cool saw a rainbow fish which turned out to be a parrotfish and the guide is funny but don't be like some 2 people who get punched in the stomach to stay alive
Great experience! We had a blast!
Anthony was extremely patient with me being a very anxious first time diver. I hope to be back some day soon!
Great time. Enjoyed it a lot. Great facility good fun
Amazing first time diving experience. Completed snorkeling and snuba in the past and wanted to take the next step. Dale and Alex took the time to walk us through the process, equip us with clean well functioning equipment, and get us in the water in a timely manner. They did a really good job of working with the nerves and anxiety of new divers and building the confidence to complete the dive. Dale held my wife’s hand the whole dive to help her and calm her down. We dove for about 30 minutes and Dale helped us follow up on the scuba certification process for when we get home!
Dale literally held my hand and made my experience 1000x better. I will definitely do it again. Alex did great!!
Dave and his sidekick were excellent. I struggled a lot but they were there every step of the way. They truly made the experience much better.
I dove with Anthony, and as an advanced diver I was really really pleased with the shore dive, his clear direction, pre dive planning, the wild life was beautiful.
Anthony was so lovely to have on my first scuba experience! I felt very safe and it was very exciting. Lots of cool wildlife.
Was a great experience with great people. The instructors were very nice and welcoming with great patience for my questions.
Dale and Anthony were absolutely amazing and so patient! It was my husband and my first dive and I ended up being way more anxious than anticipated. Anthony once came up to check on me and helped me through a slight panic moment and Dale literally held my hand the entire time, checking every step of the way to make sure I was okay. Would 100000% do again because of the amazing instructors
