Great skipper and fun dive crew with a brilliant safety first approach, I’m a bit wary if I’m diving without my partner as I don’t want to get left behind! I always want to maximise my time under the water with small groups and calm fellow divers, Dive Bermuda Somerset gave me that.
I’ve used a lot of dive outfits around the world over the last 30+ years and recognise a quality one when I see it.
Aayush expertly led us around the wreck of the Sea Venture ferry and we got the bonus of a loggerhead turtle joining in. He calmly ensured we got to see plenty of soft corals and lobster too.
Our second dive was the very pretty Blue Hole, loads of fish and a lovely swim through surrounded by beautiful corals and anenomes. A very enjoyable way to spend a morning.

Wonderful dive experience with Dive Bermuda Somerset. We celebrated our anniversary with our first wreck dive and had a amazing time! Aayush is a highly skilled instructor who made us feel very comfortable and safe, explained the history of Bermuda’s wrecks to us in a fun, entertaining way, and made sure we had an unforgettable experience diving the wrecks. Diving in Bermuda is fabulous and very unique with the beautiful healthy reef and plenty of shallow wrecks to explore. Def don’t sleep on Dive Bermuda! Everyone at the shop in Somerset is extremely nice and helpful and knowledgeable.

My daughter, son and I had another great trip with Dive Bermuda (Somerset) last week. This was our 4th trip with Dive Bermuda in recent years.
As is usual with Dive Bermuda, the Team is not only exceptional from a technical standpoint but also great at providing an overview/history of the wrecks that we're diving on during the trip. Outstanding professionals.
Added to this is that on this trip we had inadvertantly showed up a day early for the dive (Dive and Snorkeling). Though no trips were scheduled for that afternoon, the Team at Dive Bermuda immediately geared up to take us out on "Bottom Time".
I can't thank the Team there enough for making this happen.

My Dad and I went diving here on August 7th, 2024, and we had a great time! The crew was efficient, knowledgable, and helpful. They wasted as little time as possible getting us ready, and the operation ran like a well-oiled machine. Even in rough seas they got us suited up and in/out of the water safely. We were taken through swim throughs, given important information about each dive site (fire coral and protective fish parent warnings), and every effort was made to maximize our bottom time (which was greatly appreciated). Any issues we had were quickly and expertly resolved by our guide Catalina! She did a great job balancing giving us the freedom to explore while keeping the group together and safe. Besides one issue with a touchy backup regulator (it was a little old), we had a wonderful time. The expertise of everyone on board was obvious, and we’re so grateful we were able to dive with this outfit!!

Dive Bermuda is by far the best dive company on Bermuda! I've only been diving in Bermuda annually for about 16 years, and only discovered this gem three years ago. Safety is priority, followed closely by insanely great customer service. After using the previous company at this location, I was nervous about getting to know a new crew - but within minutes (no exaggeration!) they made me feel part of. They leave on time and return on time. The equipment is top notch and well maintained. Even coffee, tea and cookies on board!
You may find a less expensive company on the island, but you get what you pay for. Dive Bermuda has fantastic equipment (including boats that work!), provide personalized service and the most detailed dive briefings I've ever experienced. The staff is professional (even Capt Ronnie!) and committed to making sure everyone is safe and has the best dive possible. One key indicator is the same folk are working there year after year. Aayush, Will, Justin, and Kat all deserve commendation for their patience and awesome attitude.
I'm sure I missed a few folk from my recent visit, but I've never met anyone at Dive Bermuda that didn't make me feel like I mattered. I'll be back next year (fair warning!!)
Thank you Dive Bermuda for making my annual visit better than ever.

We had a wonderful snorkeling trip with this company! Even a brief thunderstorm couldn’t diminish the enthusiasm of Captain Ronnie and all of our guides. It was a fun day on the ocean and I highly recommend this outfit for any snorkeling or diving trips you are considering.

What a great and inspirational refresh. It had been about 5 years since I last went diving. I chose Dive Bermuda for a refresh at random and I was very happy I did. Aayush was a great instructor. Very thorough and very productive.
Even more exciting was the location of our dive. Captain Arron and Aayush were great and spent a lot of time offering valuable information about the wreck we visited and Bermuda in general.
Overall, I felt well taken care of and confident for my dive. I felt comfortable asking questions and really felt safe and comfortable being myself and enjoying my experience.
10/10 Would Recommend!

Full Day of Diving B50 Boeing Airplane & North Carolina & South West Breaker
Fantastic day of diving both sets of wrecks on the south shore with Captain Arran McLeod and Dino, Lavi, Dwayne and the Bottom Time. Lavi expertly took us along the Hayes KB-501 "aerial tanker" airplane in high vis water as Dino culled a lionfish and we spotted Queen angelfish, and a giant, green moray eel as well. Dino took us around the 1880 North Carolina wreck on Dive #2 and we filmed a scrawled filefish along the bowsprit as well as sergeant majors, schools of chub, and foureye and banded butterfly fishes along the deck railing deadeyes. Captain Arran and Dino took my son and me out for the afternoon to South West Breaker where we swam in pass thrus and along boilers and saw enormous schools of crevalle jack and Bermuda chubs, as Dino culled another lionfish and then we watched as a coney and puddingwife wrasse feasted upon it. Great day once again with Dive Bermuda. Thank you to a wonderful crew, captain, and guides, Lavi & Dino. The Best!

If you are planning to dive in Bermuda, you can’t go wrong with this team. I’ve never had such a great experience with a dive outfit, and can’t say enough good things! Safety is first rate, the dive masters are all knowledgeable, friendly, and conscientious. The dives were truly superb. This is my third year diving with this company and I will definitely be back.

As a new diver, I wanted to get a few more dives under my belt and extend my knowledge a little more, so I enrolled in the Advanced Open Water course with Diver Bermuda, Somerset.
This team go above and beyond in every way, The patience, encouragement and willingness to understand your goals make diving with them a real treat.
Dino was my instructor over the two days and he did everything he could to ensure I had a great experience. Thank you!
Special mention to Aayush too for his continued help and generosity, and Aaron for his skill at the helm in less than favourable conditions.
If you've ever had the desire to progress your dive skills, don't look any further than this shop.
