Great customer service & knowledge for all your scuba & other water sport needs. Sam, Paul and the crew have been so helpful when renting scuba gear, despite our many needs. In addition, high quality equipment! I love the Aqualung drysuits that you can’t find at any other dive shop. Highly recommend. Plus - the store has an adorable shop pup!

The service was excellent. We received assistance in choosing the right sizes and products and ensuring they fit. My husband and I both found wetsuits, boots, and gloves we are happy with. We felt the price was reasonable, and are excited to use our purchases.

I did my open water with Rowand's Reef. Paul and John were both excellent instructors. The experience being able to plan my own dive as part of the course, and have an amazing experience underwater was 10/10.

Yes…we did our dry suit certification with Allie too. I had never had so much fun learning…Allie is knowledgeable and tough and helpful. Now that we are dry suit certified, cold water is our oyster and we are so grateful to Allie for opening this door.

Did my open water and dry suit certifications with Paul and Jon; they were super accommodating and understanding of my past experiences with diving and the two weekends went smoothly, with good pacing of skills. Great support from all the staff from pre-signup all the way to signing the final papers! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get any dive certifications in Vancouver.

I had my dry suit certification course with my instructor Allie and the DM Robert, it was one of the best diving experiences for me. The staffs are very helpful and knowledgeable during sign up and throughout the whole course. Allie explained everything in details to make sure we had the best possible experience. Will definitely come back to join their group dives in the future

Took my open water and dry suit. Divemaster and instructor Allie Foell was absolutely perfect. Everyone at the shop was friendly. Good selection of equipment at fair prices. Lots of great swimwear too. Definitely going to join them for dives in the future.
Kevin
★★★★★
I’ve done a couple of the community dives with this shop. It’s a nice way to get more comfortable with diving, dry suits, and get more familiar with the areas around Vancouver. I hope they can continue to dive at Porteau Cove! I also did my Advanced Open Water with Paul. It was a fun, relaxed experience with an emphasis on gaining confidence and learning a few useful skills. We saw an octopus! So good—five stars.
