We stayed overnight on ocean quest and it was nice. They try to get 3 dives in in the morning and it is a big rush to get folks in and out of the water quickly. The trip out on the sea quest was disappointing. Way too many people to be comfortable. Mostly seasick Japanese. Experienced divers may be disappointed... More

We booked with this tour provider on the recommendation of a dive instructor here in the US. Her recommendation was first for safety, then for price. She also said that she had a wonderful time and, now, I see why. She is a college senior and the social opportunities for one in that age group are obvious. We are a... More

Having already been on a dive trip with another company, we had such a good day we booked another day on the reef with divers den due to the cheap prices. It was a very different experience to the other trip and also for each of us as I am a qualified diver while my partner is not. The boat... More

We finished our open water course with Deep Sea Divers Den this week-end with a 2 day liveaboard trip on Ocean Quest and I would highly recommend it. Very helpful crew, friendly, professional and informative. Our instructor Paul can speak fluent French which was not necessary for me but can be very useful for other French people learning to dive.... More

A well run fun and friendly group. Slept on boat for 3 nights - it was clean, comfortable and private. Not a huge room but does the job, remember no diving after drinking. More

I did a three night/four day trip on Taka with my girlfriend starting 25th January 2011. The trip was fabulous, the staff excellent, food great and the boat very well equiped. I've been diving over 25 years but had some of my best dive experiences on this trip. Fabulous. We particularly appreciated the goodbye meet-up in the Green ant cantina... More

I have been on several dive charters over the years and this was by far the best experience I have had to date. It also need to be noted that the other trips I have been on have included Mike Ball and a couple of others and to be honest even putting aside the difference in price, I would still... More

I will start with the only negative, their was a lot of brown dead coral but that is nature and not the fault of Deep Sea Divers Den. There is still plenty of beautiful colorful coral to be seen it’s just not all grouped together. We did a one night live aboard with a total of seven dives and each... More
