My wife and I have been certified for a few years now and have done the majority of our dives (30+)in Belize. We booked a two tank dive off of the Carnival (Magic) web site. When we arrived at the dive shop we were met by Sergio and his team for the normal paper work and gear rental. We did not bring any gear because we were on a cruise. The gear we rented was better than average and pretty basic, easy to use. Like most divers we have had some bad experiences with rental gear, but we had no issues at all with any of their gear.

Our crew for the two dives were Shawn (sp?) and Will. There were 9 divers in our group and we were taken out on a moderate size boat with plenty of room, extra tanks, drinking water etc. Once we arrived at the site both dive masters made sure to have an extensive safety briefing. I have been on other morning dives off of cruise ships and usually feel rushed by dive shop staff. Both of the dive masters stressed safety and took the time making sure everyone, particularly the newer divers, were comfortable. First dive was a wall dive down 80 feet, condition were great, group came down to find a turtle feeding just below the boat. Then came across a fairly large green moray cruising the reef fully visible. (This seemed kinda rare to me, usually I have only seen them outside their lair on night dives). Second dive was a shallower dive at Paradise reef. Again good safety/overview briefing. Visibility was excellent here also, and there was an abundant amount of fish in this area. Second part of the dive covered an old wreck (OV?) with quite a few larger fish hanging around.

All in all this was one of our better diving experiences. The employees of the dive shop were top notch. I would reccomend them to anyone looking for a quality dive shop. I am looking forward to spending some more time on the island and we are going to use this shop again.

First, a huge THANK YOU to Amy Carroll who so graciously helped us complete our Open Water certification this last week! You are a rockstar! We could not have asked for a better instructor and teacher! Thank you to the entire staff for your patience and expertise. We were so comfortable with you all on our Discover Scuba dives back in July that we had to come back to Don Fosters for certification. We love how excited you all are about diving and eager to teach others. Whether you are a beginner or a pro, you will not be disappointed with this crew!! I highly recommend and we will continue to return again and again! Also thanks to Paul, his middle finger and his goosebumps for all the giggles underwater too ;)
