The people who work here are awesome. I came in because I…read moreneeded a new set of swim goggles for my 6 year old. There was one green pair left and I mentioned that green is my son's favorite color. Long story short--we needed another pair the next day. I went back and after telling them I needed another pair, they guy at the counter (sorry I missed his name) saw me looking at what was out (no green) and said, "didn't you say his favorite color is green?" And he went in the back and brought out a pair of green kid goggles. Places where people go out of their way for something small like this are exactly the type of places that deserve good reviews and good business!

I always see this shop off the freeway as I drive back to LA from SD and had never stopped (yet…read moreheard good things from friends who had); but today with traffic horrible and in need of a tank fill I got my opportunity. I had called ahead to make sure (because not all dive shops are treated equal) and they confirmed they did. When I entered I realized that this was definitely a full service scuba center, not just a shop with a few items here and there; they had a full selection of gear, a large pool and learning center, a very nice large changing room, etc etc., basically everything you could ask for from a dive shop/center. I don't live locally to the area, but happy I stopped and I'm armed w knowledge for the future, and to share here, that they'll take care of you with friendly and professional service.

What a great day for whale watching!…read more The crew is amazing! Ivy, Tekon, Saxon, Chris. Hope I got all the spelling right! I've been on this boat and it's not always a guarantee as nature is nature but today was perfect. Calm seas, thousands...yes thousands of dolphin and a dozen whales. Mostly humpback but we saw two finback as well. So rad. Can't wait until next time!

The boat was clean and it also came with snacks for our 25 minute ride out to sea and back. Not sure if he was the first mate or the captain and I'm probably spelling his name wrong (Tolcan) was super attentive to our group. The ride was what could be expected on the ocean. A super plus was all the dolphins that we saw. This crew and the young lady at the sign in booth made this a very nice family event. If you are in the market to charter a boat, this is definitely a company I would look into.

We perform HD underwater video surveys for prospective buyers and can show you the condition of the bottom of your boat. We also install underwater LED and halogen lights while you're yacht is in the slip, and can just about perform any repair or maintenance task while in the water! Our hull cleaning services have been rated #1 in Dana Point, and our company prides itself in our all-American professionalism. Although hull cleaning in Dana Point is our primary service, we have more knowledge and experience than most diving companies in the area to perform modifications or upgrades. Don't call the shipyard yet! We can take care of almost anything in the water!

Mike is a standup guy and his pricing is very competitive and he always keeps me informed of the status of my zincs and bottom paint. There's a lot of hull cleaners out there so it's a bit of a crap shoot on if you're going to find a good one or a scammer that does shoddy work knowing few of us actually hop in the water and inspect the work afterwards. I do inspect it and have never been dissatisfied with their work. They charge me their cost for zincs and they don't charge me for installation while other companies upcharge for zincs and there's an additional cost to install each one of the 6 my boat uses (that adds up quick so I figure every time I need zincs SDHD saves me about $100 minimum). I've even called them in an emergency and Mike raced out and prevented a busted thru-hull from sinking my prized possession; the best part is he didn't charge me an arm and a leg for off hours work though it would have been perfectly appropriate for him to do so. I see there's only one other review here on yelp and the guy is dinging them for a referal that didn't workout which is ridiculous - no good deed goes unpunished I guess. Next time someone asks for a service you guys don't do tell them sorry and don't try to help any further or you'll end up getting a bad review for having the audacity to try to help and having things happen that are out of your control entirely. Never trust a review from a guy that has no real experience with a company - that's like trusting a product review from a person who doesn't own the product. Anyways, you can't go wrong hiring San Diego Hull Divers. I speak from experience - they're trustworthy and skilled, and are they type of business you won't regret giving your hard earned money to.

There…read morewere 12 of us on the boat, and it didn't feel overcrowded--everyone had a spot to relax and enjoy. When we first arrived, most of us needed to use the restroom (since there isn't one on the boat), and the girl working at check-in seemed a bit annoyed by that. However, once we got on the boat, she was totally fine and helpful. A few things to note: someone in your group does have to drive the boat, so plan ahead for that. You can bring your own 21+ drinks as long as they're not in glass containers, and you'll need to bring your own ice. Once you're out on the water, it's pretty lively with lots of other boats and people. We played our own music and just hung out--it was a really fun, chill experience. The two hours definitely go by fast, so keep an eye on the time. They're strict about going over, even by a minute, so we set a timer and started heading back 30 minutes before our end time. Overall, a fun and unique experience we'd recommend!

Super friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure we were having a memorable experience for my friends bachelorette party. Do not be discouraged by the other ratings on this site, I highly, highly recommend and think this is the perfect addition to any plan in San Diego. It will create a lifetime memory.
