Hi
Just got home from a paddle boarding lesson with my daughter (12 years old). The help advice and tuition was excellent and after an hour and a half I feel capable of trying it on my own. We were taught how to get back on, steer, etc and even taught about the wind and when and where to paddle depending on the weather. A definite 10 out of 10 I can see why this is so popular. It’s a great place to start as the bay is sheltered so you are not battling big waves. I can’t wait to go back and hire a board!

Hadn’t been diving for a few years and needed a refresher before I went on holiday to do some diving. I did a 2 dive refresher course and was filled with confidence to get back in the water again. Very reassuring and thorough, excellent recap on what I needed to brush up on knowledge wise and felt really safe. Highly recommend.

The team at Bouley Bay were absolutely brilliant.
I am in a very unique situation whereby I needed to be certified to dive prior to a holiday end of March.
Toyah organised everything including my PADI instructors for completing the certification in time for our holiday.
All the staff are very friendly, great sense of humour and very calm and patient for teaching all the necessary skills whilst delivering great dives each and every time.
I feel fully prepared to take on the underwater world in the future.
I'd just like to say a huge thank you to Toyah, Ads and Adam for your efforts and I couldn't recommend the team at Bouley Bay any higher.
Note: 9 degrees celsius sea temperature mid-March.

Recently completed a PADI Open Water dive Course at the brilliant Bouley Bay Dive Centre and I cannot recommend them enough. The Staff - Toyah, Adam, Simon and George are so friendly, professional and incredibly knowledgeable about diving. The hire kit is top notch and the equipment they sell is good quality.
You won’t be disappointed and if you fancy a PADI course consider Jersey.

Took our 10 year old daughter here for her first scuba lesson and it was excellent. Grant, her instructor, was brilliant with her and she loved it so much we had to book a second lesson later in the week. Can't recommend it enough.

I done my open water with this team and have to say there really fantastic. They really went out their way to help get through the course in a way that suited me much more while really putting a lot of thought into what would would work best for me personally. Their client care is absolutely exceptional, second to none. Thourally appreciated the time and care that went into it.
The experience was so good and i trust them so much I booked another 2 courses with them.
This group would always be my go to for diving and water related courses and experiences. 10/10.
Many thanks and much appreciation

Went for a dive at Les Ecrehous while visiting Jersey for a few days. The dive centre was very relaxed, professional and friendly. There was a small group (4) in total who went out by RIB boat with Keiron the dive leader and Will the boat pilot. While the dive was a little murky, we saw reef life and had a good time. We then went through the islands looking for seals and dolphins, finally having a snorkel and relax on a secret beach before heading back. Would recommend.

Just brilliant! A very friendly and professionally delivered course. My instructor Jacques was fantastic. Great at both the desktop and practical instruction. I always felt safe and now feel very competent and confident to go on more dives. Many thanks to Toyah and her team. If this is something you are interested in I cannot recommend these guys highly enough.

The whole team were amazing. Initially had only planned to do a couple of trips, but I was so impressed with how professional and friendly the whole team were, we decided to return for further day to paddle board and so I could also do a PADI specialty course.
We were very lucky with the weather and I’m sure that makes it a lot more enjoyable, but Bouley Bay is a great sheltered site for both diving and paddle boarding.
I also did a couple of other dives on the Olway wreck and at Les Ecrehoux, where we saw some really cool stuff like cat sharks.
Definitely hope to come back.
