My family used Octopus Diving for our water adventures during our holiday vacation to SXM. We were 6 divers and 3 snorkelers and Sally, Chris, and Stuart were wonderful in customizing our experiences so that we could dive fun sites while the snorkelers could see plenty of fish up above. We had two teenagers getting their advanced certifications, and when... More

I just came back from doing my Open Water Dives for my Certification at Octopus. We had gone out with Octopus snorkelling last year and my boyfriend at that time did a Discover dive and really enjoyed himself. So, when we came back home, we did our classroom and pool training up here and then decided to do our open... More

I was on the dive that this reviewer speaks of and was not part of their group of 5. My girlfriend and I had just finished receiving our PADI recreational diver certification two days earlier with Stuart, who he has referred to as "a horrible dive master". Stuart was a wonderful teacher and so patient and engaging in the way... More

Went diving with Octopus Diving today. Brought them 5 divers. Our first dive was a joke. Fish pot was the name of the site. They should call it stink pot. Our second dive was ok. Nothing special. Nothing to see!! Although, I would not be writing this review if it wasn't for their horrible dive master. His attitude was as... More

It was truly an experience I will never... More

This shop/boat is awesome! I was staying on the Dutch side and it was well worth the drive to Grand Case to escape the cruise ship crowds and take advantage of Octopus' great service. Seriously great service - once I picked out my gear, I never touched it again - they schlepped it to the boat and did all the... More

Octopus Diving was awesome. I went with my family, there are 6 divers and 3 snorkelers. Two of us got our advanced certification and two of us got our rescue diver certification. Chris was an awesome teacher and really made everything clear and understandable. Stuart and Chris were our two dive guides and they had so much knowledge of the... More

Dived with Octopus in Jan 2012. Sally and Chris (owners) run a great fun clean organized operation. Dive masters were perfectly helpful and polite. Safety and comfort is their priority. Was like diving with friends. 6 divers in a nice clean fast boat is refreshing. We had tough weather so diving was average due to mother nature, but Octopus is... More
