An unforgettable first open-water dive! The colors of the reef and the sea life were breathtaking. My instructor, Daniel, was top-notch and kept me feeling safe the whole time. Even though we were down for 40 minutes, it felt like seconds because I was having so much fun. Everything was well- organized-Paula made sure the transport was seamless, and the boat crew was incredibly helpful with the gear. The beach buffet afterwards was the perfect way to end the day and meet new people. Thank you to the captains and the whole staff. I'll be back soon for my Open Water certification!
Great day! Communication was great from the start. We were told pick up at 7:30 and Pasha was on time. Headed to Bayahibe where we shared a boat with other groups. Pasha is very knowledgeable and is passionate about diving which showed throughout the day. Many other groups that we shared the boat with had many divers for 1 guide (7 and more) which I felt was a bit unsafe. We had Pasha to ourselves. Safety was his priority. 2 dives later, the experience was great. He went above and beyond. Would strongly recommend.
Amazing dives! Can’t recommend Pash enough! I’m a rescue diver from Canada and loved my experience with Art of Diving. Firstly, answered all my questions on WhatsApp quickly and planned a dive based on my skill and wants, not just what they had scheduled. Great service from the pickup at my hotel, to the dive shop, to the boat. Even a few pointers on my technique. Will only use them when diving in Dominican
From my 1st conversation with Xavier I had a feeling that this was the company to use to expand my knowledge of diving and complete my advanced open water. Xavier was prompt with responses and answered all initial questions. Now to Pasha who picked us up from the hotel promptly at the time given, this guy is a legend. He is tough but fair and to be honest I needed some help. He was incredibly patient particularly with my buoyancy. I have learnt so much I feel privileged to have had him teach me properly. Today I did the final dives with Stefan who was just as good, he showed alternative ways of doing the things which expanded my knowledge further and I achieved my advanced badge! Now for lots more practice 👌🤿 I am so glad I chose Art of Diving. I cannot recommend them enough, great people, great teachers and a great price, thank you to all you guys and I will definitely be seeing you again when back in DR.
I had an incredible experience diving with them over a week, completing six dives. The entire team was absolutely wonderful—kind, patient, and extremely professional. They’re especially great with nervous divers, handling any challenges that arise with ease while keeping safety their top priority. I felt completely safe and well cared for throughout. My first two dives were with Stephan, who was fun, engaging, and probably my favorite of the three instructors. My next dive was with Paula, who was incredibly kind and attentive, answering all our questions and meeting every need. My final dives were with Daniel, who was so calm and reassuring, especially with a couple of nervous divers in the group. He ensured everyone felt safe and comfortable. From transportation to organizing dives to working with the owner, everything ran seamlessly. I got to see some incredible sights underwater and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking to dive in the area and would happily dive with them again in the future!
