Customer Reviews

First time scuba diving with Matt and it was amazing! We saw a sea turtle and some fish. He was very helpful in helping to understand all of the ins and outs that we needed for our first dive. I felt safe and comfortable.

This experience is marketed as "WITH TURTLES." Let me just tell you, there are never any turtles! I asked our guide before we even started if we would see any turtles, he said probably not and it's very uncommon to see one. We get to the water and he constantly was acting like my wife was uncomfortable with scuba diving and was talking to her like a child. She was fine, but he wanted to act like she wasn't so he could leave early! We were never more deeper than 5 feet in the ocean. This is not what I call scuba diving. We saw barely any fish. He was rude and cut our trip short even when my wife was asking to go deeper so we could see some fish and maybe a turtle. LOL there are no turtles! Save your money and buy a real scuba session. Total scam in my opinion. Also the guide spent more time putting on his wetsuit than actually in the water with us. We had to wait in the hot sun for 10 minutes while he was putting on his wetsuit. 10 minutes that counted against our tour time! Why did he get a wetsuit when we were just in our normal swimsuits?! Unprofessional, poor quality, false advertising, rude, and condescending in his presentation!

We had an incredible time diving in San Juan, and that is entirely thanks to our instructors, Matt and Bruno. they were professional, patient, and made the entire experience feel safe and fun. Bruno did a fantastic job with the pre-dive briefing, explaining all the procedures clearly and easing any first-timer jitters we had. Once in the water, Matt was an expert guide, pointing out marine life. They both consistently checked in on us to ensure we were comfortable and enjoying the dive.
