Feb 2026 - Based on my experience, I urge you to consider not doing business with this company…read more They appear to value revenue over the safety and comfort of their customers. Due to hazardous weather conditions, the tour we were on should never have left the harbor. Not only were the ocean wave conditions reported by the coast guard to be clearly dangerous, the driving hard rain made the conditions completely unacceptable not only for safety reasons but for customer comfort. Despite my several attempts to point this out to the staff answering the phone one day prior to the tour as well as the captain of the boat prior to departure, they blocked my attempts to reschedule or refund the trip in spite of coast guard and national weather service small craft warnings, beach closures and other tour operators canceling their tours under the same conditions. After waves broke over the bow of this small craft, the captain aborted the tour and turned around. After an unusually leisurely return to the dock, I called and asked for a refund. Later we were told based on our return time, we had received the full tour and a refund would not be issued. After escalating our concern, a senior member of the company emailed us and said we would be issued a full refund. Over six weeks later they have still not issued us a refund. We had to file a dispute with our credit card company.

Err I didn't actually needed to use the advice but that's good to know. They also sanitized everything so the items were really clean. She was really considerate and suggested that we do a fitting first. The flipper straps are actually adjustable so I didn't see an issue. We rented it for one day and the lady said we could just drop it off in the yard if we came back after hours. The whole experience was a breeze and I felt that she really tried to see what a customer's concerns may be and addressed them without my having to ask! I was also semi-interested in a glass ring and she explained how it came from and such. Just very attentive, responsive, and pleasant. The location is really convenient, easy to spot and park.

I went to rent snorkeling gear. I didn't know anything about what I needed so I asked for help…read more Tiffany found a pair of fins that fit me and handed me a bag with a snorkel and mask in it. She never suggested I do a fitting in the store, or suggested that the mask may not seal around my moustache. She asked how long I needed the rental. I asked if they do it for 24 hours or only by the day, and she said by the day. I asked how late they would be open and she said they closed at 5. I said I would be out after 5, so it sounded like I would need a 2 day rental. After she charged my card for a 2 day rental, THEN she mentioned that if I wanted to return the gear after 5 I could just drop it on the back porch. This would have been exactly the thing she should have told me when I was asking what time they closed BEFORE I had committed to 2 days. I only needed 1 day and she sneakily got me to sign up for 2. When I went out to snorkel that day, the mask was dirty and I could not get the mask to seal around my moustache, so water kept rushing in. I gave it a try but I just couldn't snorkel like that. By the time I gave up, it was after 5pm, so I knew the shop would be closed and I couldn't call or go in person that night in order to ask for a refund. When I returned the next morning. Tiffany was not working. The woman working called Tiffany on the phone when I explained the problem, but would not let me talk to her. Instead she just said "it's not company policy to issue refunds" and brushed me off. After complaining again I was given Tiffany's phone number to deal with her directly. I called and she did not pick up. I left a message and she did not return it. I guess she is too busy running for city council to care about how people perceive her business. I would not recommend this shop to anyone who is not an expert. Know exactly what you are getting and ask about every single rule before you give them any of your money. They will not try to help you. They just want your money.
