It was great to be back here after travel restrictions of recent years. I knew that Ray and Carol would be understanding and patient after a few years of being land locked. As it turned out I didn’t need the bubble makers course my wife suggested after all ( advanced open water diver) !! Cheek!!
I’ve been on many dives with these over many years and would recommend them without question. If your a total novice right through to dive master they will find something to suit everyone.
Thanks guys

Glyn, thank you so much for taking the time to write us such a wonderful review. It is always a pleasure to dive with you and to chat with your better half! The pink gin always goes down well!! Keep up with the baking and the next time you come over don't forget the Welsh pasties! Hope to see you both next year, cheers

Carol and Ray were amazing! We went as a family of four with our 15 and 16 year old son and daughter. From leaving a note to enquire through to being dropped back at the hotel the whole experience was brilliant.

They cannot do enough to make you feel welcome, comfortable, safe and most of all have fun!

The dive site was great, we saw loads of fish (even an octopus!!) and we had plenty of time in the water to really enjoy the experience.

All in all it was great value for money and a wonderful morning out see a bit of the island you would never normally be able to.

Massive thank you to Ray, Carol, Callum and Harrison!

India, it was our pleasure to take you and your family diving, and I enjoyed chatting with you around the pool. We appreciate the time you have taken to write us such a wonderful review. It is nice to hear that we made you feel comfortable as this is very important for people trying scuba diving for the first time. If any of you wish to do the PADI course please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions. It is easy to find a dive centre near you using the PADI website and remember you do not need to do the whole course in the UK. Please come and say hello should you return to Paphos, cheers Carol, Callum, Harrison and Ray

My son and I had an amazing first Scuba Diving experience with Carol on 1st August 2022. We haven't stopped talking about it! Special thanks to Carol for all her hard work in preparing the gear, as well as George and I for the dive! Both Ray and Carol went out of their way (on their day off) to visit us at our hotel, complete the pre-dive paper work and measure up for our wet suits. Nothing was too much trouble and we even picked up and dropped off right outide our hotel on the day of the dive. We will definitely be going back on our next visit to Cyprus and highly recommend Dive Point to our friends, family and anyone who has an interest in Scuba Diving! 🥰😄

If you need any information on completing your PADI dive course either back in the UK or anywhere else please feel free to contact us. If you are back in Paphos it would be my pleasure to take you both diving again. Cheers Carol and Ray

Me and my partner completed a beginners dive and it was perfect from start to finish.

The service from both Ray & Carol was incredible, they are both welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were all set up and ready to go once we arrived at the dive site. They were both professional and had an obvious wealth of experience which made us both feel in safe hands.

The dive itself was equally amazing me and my partner both had a brilliant time. We would both 100% go diving again, and if we come back to cyprus we would without a doubt go back to dive point.

I can’t recommend them enough!

Guys What can I say - this is a fantastic review - thank you so much for taking the time to write it. So glad to hear that you may both go diving again - once hooked that is it, every holiday will include a dive trip! It is good to know that we are doing what we hoped i.e. making you feel safe and fall in love with diving. We would love to see you both again should you ever come back to Paphos, cheers Carol and Ray

Well having arrived back to Divepoint Cyprus 2 years late, due to the pandemic, my twin boys are in the process of taking their PADI DiveMaster Course with Ray and Carol. As we will have been out here 3 weeks already, I today tried Discover Scuba Diving. Carol was excellent with a very nervous me, patient and went through everything slowly so I understood. It you are nervous about trying it then I would highly recommend using Ray and Carol.

Thank you Ray and Carol.

Tara I applaud you for taking yourself out of your comfort zone! Diving is not for everyone and I think 2 divers in your family may be enough (ha ha). You gave it a good shot and you were deeper than a bath!!! (Callum you should be very proud of your mum for trying!) Thank you for taking the time to write a review, it is very much appreciated.

It is rare to run into amazing service but with Dive Point (Ray) I did.

I took a vacation with very short notice and contacted Dive Point by WhatsApp about diving.

Ray came with suggestions for days, spots and even suggested another dive center because they didn't offer what I was looking for.

Sadly my plans and wishes didn't match what was possible but it doesn't take away from the service offered.

So my highest recommendations!

Thanks for leaving us a review - especially as we were unable to take you diving! So glad you managed to get the dives you wanted. Your comments about our service are great, we just want everyone to go diving - even if we cannot take them. Should you come back to Cyprus please pop in and say hello! Regards Ray

I had a fantastic experience scuba diving with Ray and Carol. They were excellent instructors who made me feel relaxed and comfortable undertaking my first dives in 2 years due to the lockdown pandemic. They were professional, friendly and so down to earth. I wish all dive instructors were like them!

And as with the other two - sorry for not replying earlier. Will need to sort out our listing to make sure we get our review notifications. Thanks for the fab review and so glad that we were able to make you feel safe and secure, being out of the water for a while can sometimes affect your confidence, just remember your training and take things slow. There is always a cuppa on the go so please come and say hello if you are ever back in Cyprus and thank you for writing the review.

Amazing experience today, having an introduction to diving with Ray and Carol. I've not been diving for over 10 years and hubby never finished his qualification. Both Ray and Carol were calm, reassuring, patient and friendly, allowing us to acclimatise again to being underwater. Carol was an absolute star, looking after our 8-year old while we explored. Thoroughly recommend Dive Point and will be using again when we return to Cyprus in the future.

Hi, thanks for the brilliant review! It was great to get to know you guys and fab that Abby was good enough to stay with Carol and allow you two to dive - although next time Carol will be diving as she was exhausted playing keepie up in the water with a blow up ball! Maybe next time we will be able to get Abby to have a dive. We really appreciate the time that you took to write this review, and for leaving us such a wonderful present! Hope to see you all again in the not too distant future. Regards Ray and Carol

I did 6 qualified dives with Ray in the Paphos area. I found him to be very professional and helpful. The dive sites we visited were very beautiful, and dive times long enough. I was picked up from my hotel each day right on the designated time. I can't think of anyone more suited to be a dive instructor than Ray. He was very keen on making the experience as pleasurable as possible. Highly recommended. Thanks Ray.

Chris, so sorry but only just seen that you gave us a fantastic review last year! So glad that you enjoyed your time with us and I know that Ray certainly enjoyed diving with you. If you are ever back in Cyprus please do come and say hello, even just for a cuppa!

My husband and I specifically booked the St George hotel because it had a dive school and I'm so glad we did! Carol and Ray were both great, relaxed, friendly and informative, we couldn't have asked for more.
We did a beginner dive as we'd done very little diving many years before and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. If and when we return to Cyprus we'll definitely go back for some more diving ☺️ couldn't recommend them more.

Kirsten, it was great to meet you guys and have a fab chat. Thank you for taking the time to write us this fantastic review and to mention us in the St George Hotel review too. We have had discussions with the hotel about our location and hopefully things will be better after the renovations next year. Should you ever come back to Cypus please do come and say hello. Cheers Carol and Ray
