Did an average reef on 1st dive, MV Taw next. Only dislike was the fact the DM did not inform people that you do not handle animals! I felt sorry for an Octopus I found hiding under a rock after a cattle boat had just surfaced. This one guy seemed to think polking him, picking up starfish and sea cucumbers... More

I can't say enough about Dive St. Kitts. The location, service, education, equipment, dive locations were all just wonderful. We thought so much about our experience with Dive St. Kitts that we are strongly considering a trip back to the island. We went on a cruise so we were only at the location for a day but we just couldn't... More

Neither of us had ever been diving before so we took the discover scuba course. The instructor, Tony, was so patient and helpful and we could tell he really loves what he does. He always made sure we felt safe and comfortable each step of the way. We had such a wonderful experience, we went back 2 more times durring... More

My wife and I did a discovery dive with Dive St. Kitts. Our instructor was infinitely patient and positive. Easy to understand and we felt comfortable with him. The location is close to the Marriott. Give them a try. More

If you want a very safe dive, then this is the trip for you. If you are looking for fun and lively group leader, this is not. Capt. of boat was very "crabby" not very friendly but was very safety conscientious. The dive trip, I think, could have been much better with a bit of "fun" talk and conversing amongst... More

My apologies that your experience was not as enjoyable as we would have liked. The safety of our divers and snorkelers is our first priority especially during choppy sea conditions as it was during your trip. Captain C does go a bit overboard sometimes but under normal circumstances he's a pretty cool guy and is also known as Captain Sunshine... More

We came to St Kitts on a cruise and wanted a day of diving not provided by the cruise as a shore excursion to save $$. We found Dive St Kitts on the web offing a 2 dive special. We set everything up on the web vie e-mail. I told Greg that I had many dives but my two sons... More

We had a really nice time on this outing! We began with kayaking. We set out in tandem kayaks. We could go as far as we wanted to. The day we went was unfortunately very breezy - so we got quite a workout and were not able to go as far as we would have liked to. Kent graciously invited... More

Diving was very good, we saw 2 wrecks, reefs and lots of fish. What I liked the most that the dive master divided our group on 2 parts and people who ran out of air went up and the rest of the group continued diving. They also picked up us from the dock and dropped off after the dive for... More

We had a wonderful excursion with Dive St. Kitts. The first dive was Ok--visibility was poor. The second dive was amazing--they took us to a mystical wreck dive where we saw a sea turtle. tons of colorful caribbeean fish. It was one of the best dives ever. More

Recently dived with these guys with a buddy for a week and we both had an awesome time! What can I say “TOP QUALITY.” The best thing of all was that we stayed at the Bird Rock Beach Hotel and so the dive shop was right on site. We got up, had breakfast, boarded the boat and we were off... More
