Cool first dive - Great diving school, everyone was very nice and professional. Clear recommendation. Things got down to business quickly, first instruction, then diving directly to a depth of 6-7 meters. Saw lots of fish

Very safe arrangement. Was a group of 10 where 5 were under 16, everyone thought it was a good experience. - Super arrangement, good service, felt very safe even with many teenagers in the company. Very good instructors who accompanied us throughout the dive.

Great experience - This was my second dive with these guys. We went by van to the dive site at the North of the island and geared up. My girlfriend went snorkeling along side the dive group. Eileen (probably the wrong spelling sorry!) was our dive master and overall instructor. She is a very talented diver, looks so comfortable in the water. We went into the water and everyone was assigned an experienced diver to shadow them. I can't for the life of me remember the man with me, tall and British! A real laid back guy, good craic. So we went down and I had an absolute nightmare with my mask not sealing and flooding constantly. It was quite stressing but my companion was very good and we resurfaced a few times to try fix it. Eileen noticed all of this and also got involved to fix the issue. Unfortunately it didn't rectify but Rosie saved the day. She was snorkeling with my girlfriend. She so very kindly swapped masks with me. It fixed it straight away and I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the dive. Felt very safe and in a controlled environment at all times. My air gauge was checked constantly and I was checked on all the time. Eileen, Rosie and my companion I want to thank you all so much and I wish you all the best in the future. Oh and Giles for getting us there and back safely. Highly highly recommend.

Best Experience ever with the best team! - I’m super happy I decided to try diving with this team( Jiles, Ari, and Ailin) especially after the scare I had last summer ( got a cramp and almost drowned!). These guys were amazing - so patient and always keeping an eye on us during the trip. You’re definitely in good hands with them. A big shoutout to Jiles for being extra patient with me at the start and helping me chill out, so I could have this awesome experience. Seriously, if you’re thinking about it, just go for it. You won’t regret it!

Beautiful fish but lacked personal touch. - Slightly disappointing overall. There was little warmth or friendliness from most of the staff from the pick up driver to the diving instructor. The instructions were rushed and not enough time was spent getting used to breathing under the water. This part was quite stressful. The clarity of water was good and lots of beautiful fish. However having a camera shoved in your face constantly quickly became annoying - the photos cost E20 extra; some great - most not. Tufia is beautiful, apart from the carpark - no toilets! Really poor communication as to what was going on after the dive as another group was waiting, so left to own devices for over an hour without any initial explanation as to what was happening or when the return journey was expected. Initially not a problem as beautiful setting but annoying not having this explained. The 4 hour "diving experience" includes a lot of waiting around.
