I'm a girl who wants to dive every island in the Carribbean before my dive days are over, so I'm against going to the same place twice. But we've been to St Croix 4 times now all because of SCUBA. Yes, there is turnover of staff between trips, but we have loved diving with them all. Molly and Ed have... More

This is an awesome experience. ET did a great job with my wife on the discovery dive experience. Professional & Safety is their utmost creed. If you want an experience of a life time I suggest Scuba as they deliver. Thanks! JT & Shelly Thompson

S.C.U.B.A. is an awesome dive shop! From the people working in the shop, to the owner, and everyone in between, it was a pleasure dealing with all of them. ET was dive master, Jeff was captain, both were great! (ET your Mom is really cool, too, snorkeling all over the place!) Boat was clean and spacious, dive spots were very... More

Josh and Krista, we're starting to get used to accolades of our great staff but it's a first to have one of our employees parents included. Thank you for the great review and we will certainly be looking forward to seeing you again soon. More

Going scuba diving here was definitely the best part of my weeklong stay on St. Croix, and that's saying a lot considering the week was packed with tons of fun activities. My instructor Fuzzy was the coolest guy on earth and extremely experienced. He took me to the pier and I got to all kinds of cool underwater life from... More

Noah, it was great for you to take some time off of your ark to come diving with us. (Sorry I couldn't resist). The Frederiksted Pier, as I've said before on other responses here, is (in my opinion) one of the top ten dives on the planet, especially at night. I can easily see why it make diving with us...

This is our third trip to St. Croix and S.C.U.B.A. and we had the same spectacular service as always. John lead us on the night dive on the Fredericksted pier and showed us eagle rays, seahorses, a batfish, octopi, eels, lobsters, and so much more! On our boat dives, he took us to our requested sites and even switched us... More

Ah some of our favorite divers. Thank you for once again joining us. To anyone else reading this, the first time we met this couple they became engaged underwater on one of our dives. This was their third trip and I've already talked to them about their next one. As for your remarks about us setting up your gear, changing... More

We were delighted. We wanted SCUBA certification so they credited our intro dive towards the course. The cost of the cert was very reasonable (double at Grand Cayman). Our instructor, John, was professional, knowledgable, helpful, and fun. The entire Staff at SCUBA was friendly and helpful. In addition to massive coral reef life, we saw a leatherback turtle (on the... More

Thank you for choosing us to help you obtain your PADI Openwater certification. It's so much easier now than it used to be. That allows us to make it fun along, of course, with being safe. Seeing a leatherback turtle, even if it was on the surface, is pretty rare during the day. Just so you know, leatherbacks next on... More

We arranged our dives in advance via email, as we had only one day in port from a cruise ship. Molly confirmed our dives and gave us detailed (easy) instructions on how & where to catch the shuttle from port. Approx. 30 minute shuttle ride over fairly straight roads (no switchbacks), we arrived at the shop in Christiansted. I have... More

It was great to have you join us for a couple of dives while your cruise ship was in port. Sorry about the slight scheduling snafu but it was easily adjusted and we're delighted that you were able to experience our famous wall diving. The wall is awesome isn't it? As you noticed, even when we have a larger group... More

My friends Tony and Barbara talked me into taking a trip to Christiansted and suggested that I get open water certified at SCUBA. As Tony previously posted, I did my eLearning online and with ET's instruction I was certified in less than two days. From my first giant step off the back of the dive boat at "Japanese Gardens", I... More
