Our dive trip was canceled due to severe weather. Reef Runners refunded our deposit and offered to find us other activities to do while we were in P.V. They could have easily taken us diving with terrible visibility, but they were more concerned about us having a good experience than making money. They worked hard to try and find us... More

I made... More

We cannot complain about the dive shop generally. Service and equipment was good. The only thing which was not so good, was that the group was a mix of experienced divers and absolute beginners with only one DM (7 persons in total). But that seemed to be a lack of organisation. Anyway the so called reef in front of Punta... More

We took two dives with these guys. Bring your sunscreen, it's hot out there for a pimp. Nice equipment and helpful dive masters. Reasonable prices and best of all, great folks. We tried to book a second day but there were full so plan ahead. Thanks again! More

Can't remember his name, but he was originally from Nicaguara. Extremely fun and consciencious of his guests. My only complaints was the tardiness of the start time and the lack of lunch. We were asked to... More

Originally I was going to get certified, but ran out of time. Instead my friend and I did the snorkel and dophin-less tour. The guy who accompanied my friend and I was super fun and enthusiastic! Overall, we had a great time! Thank you Reef Runners! More

Just took my padi corse here and our diver master was fantastic. Estefan was a great teacher and in a few days we were all confident and exhausted. The location has a great deal of wildlife and some fantastic features. Open water was about $335. A must when in town. More

My boyfriend and I chose Reef Runners as the place to get our PADI diving certification, and we couldn't have been happier with that choice. We had one-on-one instruction with an AMAZING instructor, Esteban, and had a great time hanging out with the other members of Reef Runners and taking advantage of their excellent BBQ's and cruises. Highly recommend to... More
