The staff is extremely professional and competent putting safety first. The entire staff from retail employees to the instructors, owners and boat crew are truly wonderful and experts in regard to diving. They outfitted us with usable gear that suited our needs and wants. My husband was certified without any issues. The final dives of 60' in the open ocean caused me a little anxiety but the staff at Stuart Scuba got me through. Nick B my instructor for the final dives has a fantastic personality, a sense of kindness and calm demeanor which put me at ease so quickly. Yet he has a strong sense of safety making sure I understood the entire process of these open water dives. The Boat Crew of Shannon, Chris, Trister, and Brandon also were extremely wonderful in their encouragement and doing their jobs very professionally. I cannot commend them enough. I was certified yesterday and had the most wonderful experience. I can sincerely recommend Stuart Scuba for all your scuba needs from retail items to learning to dive. They are so so very professional and the entire staff is experienced in diving. They can answer all your diving questions. It was an enjoyable experience for us. We can't wait to get out there again. Bubbles up!!! Laura B

If you are like me you don't like doing negative reviews, but this is a safety warning…read more Stuart Scuba received mixed reviews from the locals, but I dropped off 8 tanks for hydro/vip along with six first/second stage regs for service. I booked an afternoon dive on their boat. An hour after I left Stuart's shop, I was pre-checking gear, and the first stage atomic titanium was failing by blowing gas out the swivel between the HP/LP sections of the regulator. I swapped the first stages, got on the boat, then I had an ocean reef full face mask fail due to being unable to blow air out the mask due to a stuck valve. Both of these service failures could have been detected if proper post-service testing was performed on the equipment. I demonstrated the problem to the owner's wife so that she could personally examine the titanium first stage failure. She suggested that I return to the shop, but after two regulator failures, the service being careless/reckless...untested... I chose not to let Stuart Scuba re-service the gear. The shop owner and I later traded a couple of emails. He blamed the problems on me. Read off his list of credentials etc. I was surprised. No questions, just defensive behavior. I will have to get the regulators re-serviced. I paid the shop owners $861 for service, offered them the opportunity to refund the regulator service, they chose not to. I got eight cylinders filled in the shop. The first one I tested was at 38% and marked at 32%. I had the shop analyze the mix on their analyzer, 37.7%. I pointed out the ask and label was for 32%, the mix was 38%, and they I got a lecture about MOD, what the boat's afternoon dive depth was... The correct response should have been, "we made a mistake, let's get these cylinders checked and correctly marked." (watch for cold fills at the shop also). My wife and I moved to Florida five years ago. I've been diving South of Jupiter/Tampa areas out to the keys routinely now. The diving is great, divers are great, and there are plenty of solid shops and operations. I don't recommend Stuart Scuba LLC. There appears to be a safety/culture/ego issue at this shop, so I recommend that potential customers consider other.

She stated that…read morethey no longer honor those cards and haven't for at least 5 years yet we pre-paid for 25 refills and had 8 fills remaining PLUS we had tanks filled last year. This is FRAUD! She bought the business from her ex-husband on 4/9/25. Since then, the store has gone downhill. She hired kids (which is good) but they are under 18 and cannot fill tanks legally so we left our tanks. When we inquired about hours, we were told they would be opened until 4:00pm but when we drove 45 minutes we found the store closed with no signs on the door. We tried calling but they don't have voice mail set up. She said she gets "thousands of calls" and didn't want to set it up. Employees park in the parking spot reserved for loading/unloading tanks so we had to walk our tanks across the parking lot. We will not be using their shop any longer and I would others to stay away. There are better dive shops in the area.

We met friends from Down Under Dive Club in Melbourne, FL (not the other Melbourne), and everything ran smoothly right away. You drop off your gear and they load it for you. When the dives are done, they unload it too. Super easy and completely stress free. Jessica, our dive guide, and Kayla, the deckhand, were outstanding. They were organized, attentive, and made sure everyone was well briefed and comfortable for both drift dives. They also had some great extras during the surface intervals, including cold sodas, water, and fresh watermelon, which was a really nice touch. Kyalami is one of the best charter operations in South Florida. Part of me wants to keep them a secret, but they have absolutely earned the praise. Highly recommend.

My brother and I dove with Pura Vida Divers last week, and unfortunately it was one of the worst…read moredive experiences I've had -- and I've dove many times all over the world. Before booking, we were very clear that we were relatively new divers and had never done a drift dive. We specifically expressed that we wanted to feel safe and properly supported. We were assured it would be fine, but once we were in the water, the support simply wasn't there. There was very little help with weights at the start. I quickly realized I was underweighted and had to go back and get more, which immediately separated me from the group. From there, things only got worse. I ended up alone on the reef during a drift -- something that should never happen -- and ultimately had to surface solo and wait for the boat by myself. To make matters worse, my surface marker/flag device wouldn't inflate properly, and I had to be picked up alone. At no point did I feel like anyone from the team was proactively ensuring I was safe or accounted for. Afterward, the only response I received was essentially, "Sorry you had a bad experience." That was the extent of the support. The diving itself may be beautiful, but the staff's lack of attentiveness and concern for client safety and experience was deeply disappointing. When newer divers communicate nervousness and inexperience with drift diving, that should be taken seriously -- not brushed aside. This wasn't about conditions or bad luck. It was about a lack of care and leadership. I would not recommend this operation to newer divers, and I left feeling unsettled rather than excited about the dive.

From start to finish, the entire team was outstanding; kind, attentive, and incredibly focused on safety. As someone with severe anxiety about the ocean and sharks, I was initially apprehensive, but the staff went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and secure throughout the adventure. They guided us through the process step by step, patiently checking in on me and the other members of our group while we were in the water. Their extensive knowledge of shark species and what to expect during the snorkeling made a significant difference. I felt reassured knowing I was in capable hands. If you prefer a smaller group setting for your charter experience, Salty Divers is definitely the way to go. They made this an unforgettable outing, and I can't recommend them enough! Whether you're a seasoned snorkeler or a first-timer, this team will make your adventure truly special.

Scott got us fully geared up and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free--super friendly and clearly knows his stuff. Anne was incredibly knowledgeable and professional, taking the time to make sure everyone felt confident and prepared. And Annie brought such a calm, welcoming energy that instantly put everyone at ease. Now the dive itself... unreal. We saw lemon sharks, bull sharks, massive Goliath groupers, and even a tiger shark. It was one of those dives you replay in your head all day because you can't believe how incredible it was. Everything felt safe, organized, and genuinely fun. The crew clearly loves what they do, and it shows in every detail. Hands down, one of the best ways to spend a Tuesday. Can't wait to go back.

He took extra care with our son being patient and repetitive until he mastered the safety skills. Katie helped out mama bear with breathing and buoyancy. Hubby was previously certified and did his refresher alongside us. He also picked out our gear like a kid in a candy store.

Kevin assured me via email that I would be in good hands and he and his crew followed through on his promise. During the trip out to the site he explained things that would be different from freshwater diving and went over safety procedures as well as what we would be seeing underwater. Once underwater he monitored me and pointed out things too see but at the same time let it be my dive, not just me chasing him around. For those of you who are experienced divers he has a style for you also. He gets you to the site, provides you with a safe and friendly experience but lets you do your own thing. You tow a flag and they monitor it. You hit the surface and they pick you up. If you need something he and his crew are there but he doesn't try to smother you.

My husband and I were looking to go on a dive trip for our honeymoon. My heart was set on Indonesia as I didn't want to go some where "touristy" like the Caribbean, but at the time we were looking to go, there was a bomb scare in the area, which made us look for another destination. Ken suggested Matangi in Figi and I am so glad that he did. It was absolutely perfect. We were able to get the cultural non-touristy experience we were looking for as the Fijian people are so welcoming and offer a variety of activities where you can visit and spend time with them in their local villages. We also had amazing diving with a really great guide from the resort and wonderful relaxation and pampering that comes with being on your honeymoon. Ken was so easy to deal with when setting up the trip. He gave us lot of options for when we wanted to go and suggestions on the best ways to travel - he even booked us a day room when we had a long lay over between flights, which again ended up being a great suggestion. Thank you so much Ultimate Dive Travel for giving us the perfect honeymoon!
