“Sharky's Dive - 'Top Notch' Diving in the Dominican Republic”

Reviewed May 28, 2012 NEW

People make the difference! Denise, Carol, Vlad, and Gato made our trip and diving in the DR fantastic! The diving was private so we did not have to contend with a boat full of people hitting the water at the same time. The dive sites got better and better as the week progressed. The wrecks were great and provided great... More

“Amazing Dive Company”

Reviewed May 27, 2012 NEW

If you are going to the DR and want to dive - these folks are special. They pay attention to every detail to ensure you have the best of times and see what the DR really has to offer. I highly recommend the night dive on the wreck - it comes with a funny story.....!!!! More

“Best diving experience so far!”

Reviewed May 24, 2012 NEW

My brother and I went diving while 3 other family members went snorkeling above us. Visibility was great. Carol was a great instructor and made us feel very comfortable. I had read the great reviews before booking with Denise and Vlad and have no regrets - they exceeded our expectations and we hope to dive again with them some day! More

“Your Best Choice, you won't regret!”

Reviewed April 10, 2012

Well, after meeting the crew at Sharky’s I would think it would be impossible for them to get a bad review! We had a great experience with them on our two day dive trip. As I was little nervous going with the other dive shops due to the amount of people per dive master there are on each dive and... More
