My boyfriend and I just got back from our second trip to St. Martin. This was our first experience with Octopus Diving and my first diving experience ever. We had such a blast on both the snorkeling trip and the discovery dive with Octopus Diving. Sally was such a great guide and instructor for our discovery dive and I never... more

My girlfriend and I went to St. Maarten tt relax and explore the underwaterworld on this beautiful island. After two short emails to Sally everything was arranged. We arrived at the airport and Lukovic (owner of the car rental Octopus Diving is working together) was waiting there already for us. He drove us over to Grand Case and dropped us... more

After doing my open water certification with Chris and Sally, I must say that I felt comfortable from the get-go. They are so relaxed yet so focused on giving you the best experience in and out of the water. Both them and their staff were very friendly and welcoming. I plan on diving again with them soon and I know... more

My husband and i were surprised at first by the size of the dive center, but they had everything in place that you would need for professional guidance and dive equipment. Despite its small storefront a huge operation of professional divers are coming and going. We were PADI certified here and from start to finish all was handled professionally. All... more

I had read the reviews for Octopus diving trying to plan my trip to St Maartin and decided that I would dive with Sally & Chris while on vacation. The trip to St. Maarten was great and the 2 dives with Sally was the highlight of the vacation. When we arrived Sally greeted us right away and got me an... more

We visited St Martins and went out with Chris and Sally on the boat for a snorkelling trip and beach party on Tintamare Island. We were very nervous and Chris and Sally were very careful of our needs and sensitive to out fears and abilities. A great day out , a very good set up and we cannot praise them... more

Guest satisfaction is what I was told would happened when visiting this dive group, and I have to say I was not lead astray. I had one of my best experiences with them this past weekend. The crew brought me to some very memorable dive sites {the tug boat and tickling the belly of a Barracuda} while I was on... more

Went of 4 dives over two days, so we dove with 4 different staff. They were all friendly, helpful, courteous, and had great sense of humors. Not only that, but the two other divers we met on these dives were great to be around also. (Hello to Bernie and Paul from NY) They are the best dive operators we've dove... more

Octopus Diving is absolutely wonderful! I got certified to scuba dive with Octopus and have been on other dive trips with them also. They are patient, kind, and tons of fun!!!!! I admit I was nervous about diving at first. But they made it easy! They were patient and made sure we knew all the skills required. I quickly fell... more
