Me and a couple friends did 3 days of diving with Sean and Patrick, and were very impressed with these guys. They took us too some great sites, but it was the friendly approach to their business that was most notable. We had a couple experienced divers in the group and Patrick would allow you some latitude on entry, exits,... More

Patrick took me on probably the best dive I have experienced on Raro - and I've been on a fair few around the island! A relaxed but really well organised operation with plenty of time for the customer and Patrick enjoys it as much as you do, which makes a real difference. A highlight of my trip. More

I had an excellent time on my dive with Patrick and Sean. Both men were very professional, the equipment was great and even the boat ride out to the dive sites was a lot of fun! I would definitely recommend diving with these guys and will be doing so again on my return to the Cooks next year. I asked... More

Hi Brittany, Thanks for the great review. You are right, that was a wicked dive in Avaavaroa Passage. It's this time of the year (March - July) that the the reefsharks gather in the passage as it is mating season... All the best, Patrick More

Patrick and Sean took my wife and I and our three nephews, (age 18,18 and 14), for a trip outside the fringing reef. They happily accommodated our request for a combination of diving and snorkeling as just two of us dive. A great company to hire. Competent, professional and fun. More

Both myself and my husband went on a dive trip with Adventure Cook Islands. I found the dive master, Patrick was excellent. He was experienced, calm, based the dive on your experience and gave refresher information when needed. The equipment was in excellent condition and well maintained. The 2 x dives near Trader jacks were amazing. The coral reefs were... More

The open water dive course I did with Patrick at Reef to See was an experience that I will never forget and would recommend anyone going to Rarotonga to do the same. The one on one tutorials you receive and skills learnt are second to none and as a beginner, at all times I felt safe and comfortable whilst in... More

We went to the Cook Islands to experience something different in the Pacific. The people are fantastic and very relaxed. We loved the experience of diving with Reef to See. Patrick went out of his way to make sure that we saw as many of the different dive sites that Raratonga has to offer including Runway, Blackrock, Tapapa Sandriver, Arorangi... More

Hi Faye and Ian, Thank you very much for your good review. I enjoyed taking you out too. Hopefully the next time you are back in Rarotonga the sea in the south will be more favorable so we can show these sites too. All the best, Patrick More

I really wanted to dive when I was on Rarotonga. I visited 3 different dive shops and talked to the instructors briefly. I felt Reef to Sea was the one because Patrick was very friendly and easy going. He explained my options and was as excited to dive as I was. We dove early on a Thursday morning. The weather... More
