We went diving with Octopus Diving on the French side of St Marten in Grand Case and had a great experience. The staff was very helpful in getting us in the water. We saw the tugbout reef and the turtle reef. The inside of the tugboat was very exciting to go through. The price was one of the best on... more

My significant other and I decided to proceed with Open Water Scuba certification during our one week "relaxation" vacation in St. Martin. Fortunately, we stumbled across Octupus Diving (only minutes away from our hotel: Grand Case Beach Resort), which turned out to be a serendipitous discovery. Not only did we have a blast learning to dive, we were able to... more

While vacationing on St. Martin to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, we decided to check out SCUBA Diving possibilities on the island. I found OctopusDiving right here on trip advisor and based on the prior reviews, it looked like the place for us. I contacted Chris via telephone on a Monday morning and fortunately, he was able to squeeze us... more

What else can I say but, Octopus Diving is THE BEST! I went to St Marrten for a weekend getaway with my girlfriend and heard great things about Octopus Diving. Sure enough their great reputation is well merited. Chris and Sally were helpful from the start before we even arrived on the island with setting everything up with us. Upon... more

Everything was catered for, all I had to do was turn up, relax and enjoy - I couldn't believe it, I saw turtles and... more

My husband and I dived with Octopus several times in May 2009. Chris and Sally, the owners, were flexible and friendly, and they take safety very seriously. J.P. led each of our dives and was conscientious and fun. The Octopus team clearly wanted us to have the best dive experience for the day's conditions, and not just any old outing.... more

Seriously, I couldn't have asked for a better way to get introduced to diving and get certified than through Octopus Diving. Chris, Sally and JP are friendly, laid back and yet beyond professional. Chris was my instructor and he not only made me feel comfortable, he made sure that after three days of classroom/in water exercises and actual dives I... more
