One of the best things I’ve ever done. The photos don’t do it justice – there are way more fish, and the coral and colours are way more beautiful than any photo. The team are super knowledgeable and very chill, this is the best spot on the island to hang out and dive. Everyone dreams of flying, don’t they? Well, it’s like that. But with more colours.

Ken is an amazing scuba instructor!!! His happy and calm, laid back personality, instantly put me at ease. My once anxiety, quickly dissapated into feeling proficient and one with the water. He welcomed any and all questions I and had an answer for everything! He knows his stuff! All da stuff!!!He also takes incredible underwater pictures!!

Experienced and passionate instructor. Very patient with the children. Only goes down if everyone knows the theory and has mastered the skills. Doesn’t matter if it takes a little longer. Very nice dive with the highlight of seeing the tugboat up close. Highly recommended if you stay on this beautiful island!
