Just got back from Aruba, we spent 3 days 6 dive with Jads. Had a great time felt safe and was able to dive your profile. Boat was clean with a fresh water tank for your camera.

It was my first time visiting Aruba. We got there and tried Dive Shop #1. Went out to the wreck...spent 10 minutes on it and went scurrying away from it for the rest of the dive. I like wrecks. I've seen enough sand and coral and fish. 10 minutes on a wreck dive is not that great for me. Keeping... More

We dive all over the carribean and this experience was one of the least "safe feeling" of any. On the boat before the dive one of the "guides" from the dive shop asked my husband if his air was on - he said "yes but please feel free to double check." She then proceeded to turn his air OFF and... More

My wife and I recently spent time diving with JADS. Sue and Enuardo ( sorry about the spelling) but both were fun loving, pleasant , enjoyable and very much on top of their game. Although my wife and I are AOW divers with world experience, I really haven't enjoyed diving in Aruba until I went with JADS. They understand the... More

I truly enjoyed the JADS scuba diving experience. Sue and Annuard were professional, responsible, and passionate! We did two dives, and saw many amazing underwater creatures (including an octopus!). Can't wait to return to Aruba - undoubtably, I will be diving with this company again.

I showed up at the designated meeting location more than 30 minutes early to make sure that I would catch the boat for the early morning dive. Knowing that "Island Time" can result in an operator not necessarily showing exactly when they say, I waited almost a half hour past the time I was supposed to be picked up and... More

I've done the Discover SCUBA course in a number of places (Samana(Dom.Rep.), Bonaire, St. Thomas (Coki Beach...twice) and now with JADS in Aruba. My friend Ron and I booked this privately while our respective wives took a tour of the island. Right from being picked up dockside from the Caribbean Princess, we knew we were in good hands.

What a fantastic experience diving with JP at JADS. We signed up with ease and had a private dive with our DM. We did a shore dive at Baby Beach and it was well worth the adventure. The aquatic life was plentiful (rays, morays, octopus...) and it was a casual depth of no more than 50 feet. I must also... More
