Review of: PADI Discover Scuba Diving Tamarindo
The pool training was first class giving great confidence for the following day out in the open water. Risky, yes that's the name of our instructor!, was anything but that - very professional and super patient when needed. The open water dive was hampered slightly by the weather but still managed to see an amazing array of marine life including white tip reef shark, moray eel and most spectacular and graceful manta ray - truly awesome! Risky was brilliant with my partner who was diving for the very first time, it made her experience being able to relax and enjoy the dive knowing she was in safe hands. Thank you to Risky, the Captain and crew…

My wife and I took this discovery course. Instructors were thorough and safe and described everything in easy to understand language. We are both going for an open water certification now and that is a testament to the experience they carefully craft for participants.

Review of: Two-Dive Tour at Las Catalinas Islands
Went for a week of scuba exploration in January, mainly to check out the Catalinas! I know, delayed review!! ;) The good: Communication and booking was super clear and easy, boat, equipment and crew were great! Saw a couple of mantas (YEAH!), many sharks, a couple of eagle rays (I like the bigger critters, so that was good!). The bad: Conditions were not good, very windy (normal for that time of the year, I was told). Made the (normally) short trip to the Catalinas sites rough and longer (60 vs 20min).... if even possible. Captain had to change sites once we had left on one of the days, so missed the Catalinas altogether to hit shore sites (which were.... quiet let's say). Would have preferred to stay dry for that one. Visibility was very bad (5-7m), so mantas were "drive-by's" to catch when they happened. White-tips being lazy dogs chillin' at the bottom were easy to check out though. If not for the conditions and the resulting trips, would have been excellent! But that's not Phil and his crew's responsibility. For what they could control, they did a very good job and I recommend them! :) Portrero is a quiet little town, car not required to dive, drink, eat. A nice place to dive and relax!…

Review of: Two-Dive Tour at Las Catalinas Islands
I dove 2 days with Scuba Dive Costa Rico this past Feburary. It was a great diving experience. I emailed 3 dive shops before my trip and Phil the owner of Dive Costa Rico was the only one that answered my email. He runs a nice shop. He was very honest and accmmodating. He told me that it was the windy season and the diving was good but not the best of the year. He included in his email suggestions of close Motels, we already had out reservations elsewhere. We will stay at the recommended places next time. Phil picked me up at my hotel for the first dive, he was very nice and informative about the area and some of what the area has to offer. Phils dive crew was great, I would highly recommend them.…

Robert and I came here to finish our PADI certification here at the end of February. We had already done our on-line training and confined water dives and were looking to complete our 4 open water dives. We had Alvaro to show us the ropes on the first day and Phil on the second day; both of these instructors were attentive, personable and informative. We felt comfortable throughout the diving experiences and saw things we never dreamed we would see on our first open water dives! We saw white tip sharks, a school of devil rays, eels, blow fish and much much much more. If you are looking for the best diving team in Costa Rica this is the place! Thank you SDCR for an unforgettable experience and helping us to complete our PADI certification.…
